Cold heading machine is a product that upsets billets into a certain shape at room temperature. With the continuous development and progress of production technology, automatic cold heading machine has been widely used in the manufacture of automobiles and mechanical parts. The equipment is fully automated to complete the batch specialized production of nuts, nuts and other double-click die standard parts, feed from the roller, cut off sequentially, and punch and form at the corner, which is completed in one machine, eliminating the time-consuming and expensive annealing process. Cold heading machine is a kind of steel bar heading machine that uses manpower as the driving force to press the steel bar head into the required shape.
Cold heading machine belongs to the stamping machinery in the wire forming automatic machine category, is a kind of high-efficiency automatic forging machinery, it is mainly to pump the wire material to the machine, and in the function of the machine will make it into screws, mainly produce bolts, pins and rollers and other multi-station screw standard parts, as well as complex shape of cold forming parts and bevel gear shaft ball pin spark plug and other auto parts, is to achieve less without cutting processing multi-station process machine. Analysis of the current situation of the cold heading machine industry
From the middle of the 19th century, human beings invented threaded fasteners, in 1894, the first use of mechanical methods to manufacture hexagonal bolts, to the early 20th century invention and application of one-click automatic cold heading machine, since then from the click, double-click, single-station cold heading machine, to two-station, multi-station cold heading machine, has experienced a long historical period. This process is roughly: the 50-60s of the 20th century is the development period of single-station automatic cold heading machine to multi-station automatic cold heading machine. The 60s and 70s were a time when all kinds of molding machines were in full bloom. The 80-90s was a period when computer technology was used to control the operation of equipment and control product quality, and on this basis, the application scope of automatic forming machines was expanded. At present, the competition pattern of the cold heading machine industry is divided into three levels:
The first level is an internationally renowned enterprise, which occupies a leading position in the high-end market of cold heading machine by virtue of its strong technology and brand advantages. Such as Kookmin Machinery Corporation, Nedschroef, SACMA Group, Asahi Channak Co., Ltd., Nakashimada, and Hartbur, among others.
The second level is a small number of local advantageous enterprises and Taiwan-funded enterprises that have mastered the core technology of high-end cold forming equipment, have independent intellectual property rights, have a large scale and a certain brand awareness, and have a certain competitiveness in the high-end cold forming equipment market. Such as Sijin Intelligent Forming Equipment, Chunri Machinery Industry and Zhejiang Youxin Machinery Industry, etc.
The third level is the small scale, technology research and development capabilities of relatively weak private enterprises, such enterprises due to low market visibility, product performance and stability is relatively poor, mainly in the low-end market to carry out competition.
The cold heading machine industry is a technology-intensive, capital-intensive industry, there are no policy restrictions, although there is a certain entry threshold, but the number of enterprises in the industry is large, the market competition is more sufficient, and the degree of marketization is higher.
The development trend of cold heading machine
Digitalization and automationWith Industry 40 and the continuous advancement of intelligent manufacturing, cold heading machine technology tends to be digital and automated. The use of digital control system and advanced automation technology can achieve higher production efficiency, more accurate process control and faster mold change time. Automation can also reduce human error and improve production consistency.
High speed and high efficiencyThe working speed and production efficiency of the cold heading machine are constantly improving. Increase the efficiency of the drivetrain and cold extrusion process by improving the design and control system to achieve faster processing speeds and higher throughput.
Precision machiningFor the production needs of some high-precision parts, cold heading machine technology pays more and more attention to precision machining. Optimize the design of molds and tooling with advanced computer-aided design and state-of-the-art technology to improve machining accuracy and dimensional consistency.
Adaptable to diverse needsCold heading machine technology is increasingly focused on adapting to diverse product requirements. The flexible mold design and quick mold change system allow the cold heading machine to quickly adapt to the processing needs of different product specifications and shapes.
