The scroll disk of the automotive air-conditioning compressor is its core component. High-precision processing can effectively reduce noise and improve the stability of operation.
Recently, we received an inquiry from a French customer, who is a well-known automotive air-conditioning compressor manufacturer. He showed great interest in our PCD tools for precisely processing automotive air-conditioning compressor scroll disks.
Processing challenges of scroll compressors
The core components of the scroll compressor - the moving disk and the static disk - are typical thin-walled parts. Thin-walled parts are prone to deformation when subjected to force, heat, and vibration. Therefore, obtaining high-precision contour processing and ensuring the verticality and surface finish of the side wall and the bottom surface is very difficult. Milling processing is not only a huge challenge but also puts extremely high demands on processing tools.
In order to solve these problems, we are constantly committed to developing and manufacturing difficult cutting tools, which not only improve processing efficiency and tool life but also reduce scrap rate. In addition, we provide optimized technical solutions and professional overall solutions for these processing needs.
Customer status and our solutions
Currently, this customer uses carbide cutting tools with vertical Makino machine tools, with a maximum speed of 16,000 rpm, and the material is cast aluminum. A 3/4-edge carbide milling cutter is used, and the lubrication concentration during processing is 10%.
We have specially designed a series of carbide milling cutters for air-conditioning scroll compressor parts processing, including 4-edge and 6-edge milling cutters for roughing and finishing. Compared with super-hard tools, our carbide milling cutters can not only achieve efficient processing but also significantly reduce tool costs. To ensure that customers can get products in the shortest time, we have some standard-size tools in stock and also support non-standard customization.
- Raw materials: high-performance bar stock
- Design: exclusive tool design
- Manufacturing: high-precision tool grinding center
- Edge technology: unique micron-level post-processing process
- Customer feedback: strong wear resistance, high finish, stable performance
Advantages of PCD milling cutters
Our PCD milling cutters use special edge design and PCD materials, which are particularly suitable for processing specific materials. PCD milling cutters greatly improve tool life and processing efficiency compared to carbide tools under the same processing parameters. At present, similar products on the market have high costs and long delivery cycles, but we have some regular sizes in stock, which provide a reliable guarantee for your product development and application. In addition, we also provide sharpening services to ensure the long-term performance of the tools.
More application solutions
We not only provide machining tool solutions for air-conditioning scroll discs but also provide customers with overall cutting tool solutions for various automotive parts including engine blocks, cylinder heads, gearbox housings, turbochargers, steering gears, steering knuckles, wheels, etc.
