Right now I would like to get into to some real world applications
that are taken directly from customer request and also demos. Many of
these examples that we are showing you guys today involve poor flushing
conditions. This is a trim dye for the automotive industry. You can see
our average rough speed is about fifteen point three five square
inches. Our key technology utilized well of course the HEAT technology
flushing wizard along with belly wizard is always active when we are
utilizing HEAT. Of course the impact was dramatically reduced cutting
time with no wire breaks. If you could see the voids in the material,
this is a very difficult part so utilizing this technology really
helped our cutting speed.
If you could see some of the data
provided here I won't get into every little thing but you can see at
the bottom there the cycle time is about two hours and six minutes. You
are looking at a contour length of about eight point six inches
perimeter length. Three pass machining one cut and two trims averaging
about a forty about a forty RA surface finish utilizing twelve
thousandths high speed wire.
Another example of a poor
flushing condition we've, it's one cut on the two outside perimeter the
inside where the arrow is we have a few trim cuts just to show surface
finish differential. You can see the average cutting speed again. If
you look at the particulars here this was standard versa cut brass or
any brass for that matter, stainless steel. The average thicknesses
went from one inch to four inch. The average thickness overall happened
to be about two point five. Some particulars at the end, the cycle time
was fifty-two minutes and the wire consumption which we will get into
in a little bit later on another example.
Very difficult part
here, inside gear shape. Average rough speed here was about twelve
square, two hours and eight minutes. Again all produce a dramatic
decrease in cutting speed. See the particulars here, fifty-five tooth
gear. A big difference I would like to go over the bottom is our wire
consumption which has been averaging now fifty percent less than our
competitor. You could actually get a good snapshot at the bottom. That
whole job utilized about one point nine pounds of wire, two pounds of
wire. So we all know the cost of copper wire. If you could associate
fifty percent less cost in that over a year time, it's a substantial
amount of money.
