The story of the processing site and "cutting tools."

In the processing site, cutting tools are not merely consumables; they are crucial elements that influence the overall quality and stability of the machining process. Various conditions, including sharpness, holding methods, materials, and cutting oils, overlap to establish the machining process. Sharp cutting tools stabilize the entire machining process, but when sharpness declines, it becomes difficult to adjust conditions without strain. Additionally, even under the same conditions, the way tools function can vary depending on the workpiece shape and material, which is why experience and intuition are also valued on-site. Machining becomes increasingly unstable as material is removed, making it challenging to hold the workpiece. Therefore, it is essential to create a stable environment that includes not only the cutting tools but also the holding methods, cutting oils, and surrounding conditions. We consider cutting oils to be an integral part of the "cutting tool" that supports the machining process. Moreover, hand tools such as files and deburring tools are also important tools that support quality, not just machine tools. Machining cannot be performed under exactly the same conditions every time. That is why we emphasize maintaining the condition of tools and auxiliary materials to create a reproducible environment. We believe that each accumulated effort contributes to the final quality.
