The Importance and Benefits of Using a Tool Passivation Machine
1. Significantly Increased Tool Life: This is the most crucial benefit. Passivated tools typically experience a 20% to 200% or even higher increase in tool life because it eliminates weak points that lead to premature chipping.
2. Improved Machining Stability and Consistency: Consistent cutting edge strength, smaller fluctuations in cutting force, smoother machining processes, reduced risk of tool breakage, and improved product quality consistency.
3. Improved Workpiece Surface Quality: A strong, smooth cutting edge allows for cleaner cuts, reducing tearing and burrs on the workpiece surface, resulting in a better surface finish.
4. Reduced Production Costs: Although the passivation process is added, the significant increase in tool life reduces the number of tool changes, tool purchases, and downtime, resulting in a significant decrease in overall costs.
5. Particularly Suitable for Difficult-to-Machine Materials: When machining materials such as heat-resistant alloys and titanium alloys, unpassivated tool edges wear very easily, making passivation almost a necessary step.
