【Surface Treatment】Effectiveness of OX-FSP Treatment on Cutting Tools and Processing Examples
Introducing the effectiveness and processing examples of surface treatment and precision shot peening for cutting tools, "OX-FSP."
We will introduce the effectiveness of the precision shot peening surface treatment technology "OX-FSP" on cutting tools and provide processing examples. (1) Improvement of surface hardness (2) Removal of burrs from the cutting edge (3) Reduction of sliding resistance (4) Enhanced adhesion of coatings and removal of droplets *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
basic information
【Precision Shot Peening 'OX-FSP Processing'...】 This is a method that finely selects shot conditions according to the material, heat treatment, hardness of the product, as well as the usage environment and its countermeasures, and processes under appropriate conditions with the main objectives of improving fatigue strength and enhancing sliding properties. Compared to conventional shot peening, by reducing the media size to several micrometers to several millimeters, the injection speed can exceed 200 m/sec, allowing for tremendous injection energy even with the same amount of air (processing pressure). This enables the achievement of surface heat treatment effects, high residual compressive stress, and good sliding properties. 【Features of OX】 □ Capable of handling small lots (from 1 piece) to mass production □ Permanent test machines for prototyping □ Equipped with various inspection devices *We can visit anywhere nationwide for explanations.

Detailed information
-
Examples (1) Cutting tools with cutting edges (pinions, drills, end mills, taps, etc.) → Improvement of over 1.5 times (2) Punches, rolling racks → Improvement of over 2 times (3) Broaches, hob cutters → Improvement of over 1.5 times

Comparison with after processing Left: Pinion cutter Right: CO2 welding tip
-
Improvement of lifespan through OX treatment for cutters Before treatment: The maximum tooth surface roughness in mass production is about 20S, with tool replacement after processing 80 pieces. After treatment: The number of pieces processed until the tool reaches a maximum tooth surface roughness of 20S is approximately 210. Effect: Lifespan increased by about 2.5 times.
-
Evaluation: The pinion cutter, punch, and center drill were effective. There were both effective and ineffective hob cutters, but none of them shortened the tool life. Consideration: After regrinding the cutting tools and processing them, it is believed that the "rake face" and "clearance face" are strengthened, resulting in reduced wear. The burrs on the regrinded surface are removed through processing, improving surface roughness and allowing for smoother chip flow, which contributes to reduced wear.
