Case Study Example CASE STUDY

A

DRILLING

The PROOF is in the NUMBERS Tool Life: CompeƟtor Boring (number of parts = 75)

Project Profile: Tooling SoluƟon:

Grey Cast Iron Hydraulic Transmission Component

ALVAN® Reamer - Monobloc Style

The Problem: Previously, the customer was using a compeƟtor boring tool running at the following parameters: • 3802 RPM • 152 m/min (500 SFM) • 0.076 mm/rev (0.003 IPR) • 290 mm/min (11.41 IPM) With two passes, the tool made a 12.758 mm (0.5023") diameter hole to a 30.48 mm (1.20") depth. • Cycle Ɵme = 12.6 seconds • Tool life = 75 parts Seeking to streamline the producƟon process, the customer needed to increase tool life and lower the cost of producƟon. The SoluƟon: Allied Machine recommended the ALVAN® monobloc style reamer. • Reamer = 92440 series carbide, uncoated, V lead The tool ran at the following parameters: • 2200 RPM • 88 m/min (289 SFM) • 0.48 mm/rev (0.019 IPR) • 1061 mm/min (41.80 IPM) The tool achieved the desired diameter and depth, and the results achieved the customer’s goals. • Cycle Ɵme = 1.7 seconds • Tool life = 3,176 parts The Advantages: The customer was able to lower the cost of producƟon and increase the tool life. • Reduced cycle Ɵme from 12.6 seconds to 1.7 seconds • Increased tool life from 75 parts to an incredible 3,176 parts • Total cost savings = £2,139/€2,436 (or 52%)
