[VA/VE Case] Automated chamfering process with machinery to achieve quality stabilization.

To efficiently perform chamfering, it is necessary to automate the process using machines!

We would like to introduce a case where the chamfering process was automated with machinery, achieving stabilization of quality. In sheet metal processing, there are often times when chamfering of corners and edges is necessary. However, performing chamfering in the usual way can lead to increased time and costs due to manual processing. Therefore, our company proposed to carry out chamfering with machinery and implemented automation. We used a mold that creates a tapered cutting surface, and after processing, it was completed with laser machining. 【Case Overview】 ■Before - Performing chamfering in the usual way incurs time and costs due to manual processing. ■After - We proposed to carry out chamfering with machinery and implemented automation. - There were no instances of forgetting to chamfer, which also contributed to the stabilization of quality. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
