Hello there! I’m an engineer at AMOR CNC, and today, I’m here to share our journey in tackling one of the toughest challenges in the gasket industry: cutting ultra-high hardness materials. We’ve put our heads together, done the research, and have come up with some pretty nifty solutions to ensure our machines work like a charm—day in, day out. So, let’s dive in!

The Challenge: Cutting High-Hardness Gaskets

Gaskets are crucial for sealing joints and preventing leaks in various applications. But things can get tricky when it comes to materials like non-asbestos boards, graphite-reinforced gaskets (with an embedded 0.1mm stainless steel sheet), and PTFE (Teflon) sheets. These materials are tough, and traditional cutting methods often buckle under the pressure—literally!

The First Step: The Right Tool for the Job

First things first, we had to find the perfect cutting tool. We’ve had our fair share of trials with pneumatic oscillating tools. Sure, they’re powerful, but they’re also a bit like that one friend who’s great fun until their mood swings kick in. They rely on compressed air, and any fluctuation in air pressure can lead to unstable cutting, causing all sorts of issues.

So, what did we do? We turned to our trusty 400W high-power electric oscillating tools. Powered by Mitsubishi servo motors, these tools are the superheroes of the cutting world—strong, stable, and reliable. The servo motors ensure a steady performance, unaffected by the whims of air pressure, making them perfect for cutting through the hardest materials with precision.

The Reinforced Tool Holder: Stability Matters

But a great tool is nothing without a sturdy holder. Imagine trying to cut a steak with a knife that's wobbling all over the place—not fun, right? To avoid any such wobbly disasters, we designed an enhanced tool holder. This isn’t just any tool holder; it’s got a dual guide rail system and an L-shaped structure. The guide rails are 20mm wide—double the usual width—and positioned on different planes to maximize stability and reduce vibrations.

This rock-solid design ensures that our tools stay put, delivering precise cuts every single time. Plus, the whole structure is milled in one go, not pieced together with screws. This means better vibration resistance and higher precision—perfect for tackling those hard materials.

The Drive System: Power and Precision

Now, let’s talk about the drive system—the heart of our machines. To cut hard materials, we needed something robust and reliable. Belt-driven systems? Nope, not for us. They stretch and cause all sorts of inaccuracies. Instead, we opted for a drive system with dual Mitsubishi servo motors, precision reducers, and high-precision ground rack gears.

This setup is like having a luxury sports car engine in your machine—powerful and precise, with no room for error. By eliminating belts, we’ve removed the risk of stretching and ensured that our machines maintain their rigidity and accuracy, even during heavy-duty operations.

Real-World Success: A Case Study

Let me share a story from one of our clients. They were a gasket manufacturer constantly battling with cutting inaccuracies and frequent maintenance due to their old belt-driven system. They switched to our AMOR CNC machine with the enhanced drive system and tool holder, and the difference was night and day.

Precision: They saw a dramatic improvement in cutting accuracy, producing gaskets that fit perfectly every time.

Stability: The robust design of our tool holder and drive system meant they could cut for longer periods without any decline in performance.

Efficiency: Maintenance became a breeze, and their overall productivity shot up, saving time and money.
