CASE STUDY

The PROOF is in the NUMBERS

Project Profile: Tooling Solution:

Grey Cast Iron Hydraulic Transmission Component

ALVAN® Reamer - Monobloc Style

Tool Life: Competitor Boring (number of parts = 75)

The Problem: Previously, the customer was using a competitor boring tool running at the following parameters: • 3802 RPM • 500 SFM • 0.003 IPR • 11.41 IPM With 2 passes, the tool made a 0.5023" diameter hole to a 1.20" depth. • Cycle time = 12.6 seconds • Tool life = 75 parts Seeking to streamline the production process, the customer needed to increase tool life and lower the cost of production. The Solution: Allied Machine recommended the ALVAN® monobloc style reamer. • Reamer = 92440 series carbide, uncoated, V lead The tool ran at the following parameters: • 2200 RPM • 289 SFM • 0.019 IPR • 41.80 IPM The tool achieved the desired diameter and depth, and the results achieved the customer’s goals. • Cycle time = 1.7 seconds • Tool life = 3,176 parts The Advantages: The customer was able to lower the cost of production and increase the tool life. • Reduced cycle time from 12.6 seconds to 1.7 seconds • Increased tool life from 75 parts to an incredible 3,176 parts • Total cost savings = $2,407 (or 52%)

Tool Life: ALVAN® Monobloc Style Reamer (number of parts = 3,176)

Overall SAVINGS of 52 %
