    Nine9 Cutting Tools Honored in the Making of Forged Wheel's

    Nine9 was recently recognized in an article “Meet the 1000 ‘hidden champions’ behind Taiwan's electric car-making dream”. From hardware providers to software companies, Taiwanese “hidden champions” have rallied under the banner of electric vehicles. They can produce every part of the car, from top to bottom, from a small screw to whole car body, including internal combustion engine and electric system.To get more news about Steel wire wheel, you can visit nnxwheels.com official website.
    If you didn't already know, Nine9’s V045 / V060 Engraving tool is a popular tool for mold and die in tire mold applications.
    The Engraving tools can run at higher speed and axial depth of cut (AP) is up to 0.8mm to reduce cycle time and do it all burr free.

    The V045/V060 Engraving tool is also used to engrave the serial number, logo and all of the product info on wheel frame and rim in any kinds of steel, aluminum alloy, and stainless steel with excellent quality and time saving.The Nine9 NC Helix Drill is used to machine multi-stepped holes in forged wheels manufacturing. The NC Helix Drill has special insert geometry design with serrated cutting edge that makes chips small, short, and easier to evacuate. It's really good for cutting material that generates long, stringy, soft chips that are typical in the aluminum alloy used in forged wheels.
    With the need for decreased cycle time, forged wheel production has become much more automated which means unattended machining The importance of chip control and evacuation also increases significantly in that kind of environment.

    The reason is while lights out machining, manufacturers not only don’t want to stop machine because of chip wrapped around tool, they can't. And what can result is scratches the forged wheel that lead to higher scrap rates.
    The NC Helix Drill is capable of helical interpolation for milling, drilling and slotting with a single tool. Take a look at the video below and you can see why it's preferred in a lights-out production floor or even a short run production machine shop: It can optimize the machining process by tool saving from 2 to 4 tools and reduce the machining time by one operation with excellent chip control!
