Aoshiji® Custom Tool supplies drawing-specific cutting tools for bearing manufacturing applications, including bearing cages, bearing retainers and large bearing components.
These applications often involve large diameters, formed holes, grooves, precision bores and interrupted cutting in gray cast iron or ductile iron such as QT400 and QT500.
Typical applications include:
• Bearing cages and bearing retainers
• Wind turbine bearing components
• Large-diameter formed holes
• Precision bores and stepped bores
• Slots and circumferential grooves
• Radius and profile machining
• Roughing and finishing of cast components
Bearing components can place high demands on tool-body rigidity, cutting-edge support and dimensional stability.
For large-diameter or interrupted-cut applications, Aoshiji evaluates the workpiece structure, machining allowance, cutting depth, machine rigidity, coolant condition, tolerance and surface-finish requirement before determining the tool construction and carbide grade.
Typical solutions include carbide-tipped form counterbores, form milling cutters, carbide-tipped reamers, drills, side and face milling cutters and other drawing-specific form tools.
