Competition in the general equipment manufacturing industry is becoming increasingly fierce, and most small and medium-sized machining and non-standard equipment manufacturing companies generally face common production problems.
Most ordinary turret milling machines on the market have crude craftsmanship and insufficient rigidity. They are prone to problems such as body shaking and rapid accuracy attenuation under long-term heavy cutting conditions.
At the same time, off-brand equipment does not have a complete quality control system and has not undergone full-scale testing before leaving the factory. The equipment has poor stability and frequently suffers from problems such as dimensional deviations and surface knives.
In addition, most brands supplied by middlemen do not have exclusive after-sales systems, slow response to equipment failures, high premiums for spare parts, and the multi-variety and small-batch processing characteristics of non-standard parts. It is easy to suffer from insufficient production capacity, low yield rates, and high operation and maintenance costs, which seriously restricts workshop production efficiency and corporate profit margins.
The cooperative enterprise in this case is Nanjing Kekai Machinery Co., Ltd., located in Jiangning District, Nanjing City. It is deeply engaged in the general equipment manufacturing industry and is mainly engaged in precision processing of mechanical parts and customized manufacturing of non-standard equipment.
The company focuses on the production of multi-category, small-batch precision parts, serving machinery, heavy industry, general equipment supporting and other fields.
The daily processing categories of the workshop are complex and require extremely high accuracy, stability, versatility, and adaptability of the equipment. There is an urgent need for a turret milling machine with high rigidity, high precision, and low failure rate to meet the processing needs of normalized precision milling, drilling, and boring, and to adapt to the diversified production scenarios of non-standard parts.
This time, the customer directly contacted Qingdao Taizheng Precision Machinery Co., Ltd., the source factory of the turret milling machine, to finalize the adapted model and put it into workshop production.
Before purchasing new equipment, Nanjing Kekai Machinery relied on old processing equipment for production. The bottleneck of workshop production was prominent, and the core problems were concentrated in four points.
First, the equipment has insufficient rigidity, and the machine body vibrates significantly during heavy cutting. The surface of non-standard parts is prone to knives, and the flatness is not up to standard. It is difficult to control the dimensional tolerances of precision parts.
Second, the accuracy decays quickly, and the positioning deviation becomes larger after the equipment is used for several months, requiring frequent shutdowns for calibration and debugging, which takes up a lot of production man-hours.
Third, the original equipment is poorly equipped and lacks complete auxiliary accessories. The replacement of multiple types of workpieces is cumbersome and the processing scenarios are limited, making it unable to efficiently adapt to the production of non-standard customized parts.
Fourth, the equipment previously purchased from middlemen has no guaranteed after-sales service, delayed response to faults, high prices and long procurement cycles for spare parts, serious equipment downtime and losses, and continued rise in operation and maintenance costs.
Based on the customer’s core scenarios of precision parts processing and non-standard equipment parts manufacturing, the technical team of Qingdao Taizheng Precision Machinery Co., Ltd., after on-site investigation, accurately recommended the Qingdao Taizheng turret milling machine MX-4HG model to the customer, relying on the advantages of self-production and sales of the source factory to customize and adapt the production plan.
This model is built based on Taiwan’s original drawings and is fully suitable for batch processing of small and medium-sized precision parts and single-piece trial production scenarios.
The equipment adopts TH250 high-grade castings. The integrated double-wall reinforced machine bed is equipped with natural aging and secondary tempering processes to completely eliminate internal stress. It is not easy to deform under heavy cutting conditions and has strong shock resistance.
The core three-axis screw rod adopts Taiwan Yulu precision parts, and the guide rail has been processed by high-frequency quenching and manual scraping to ensure stable accuracy and durability.
At the same time, nine special accessories and nine wearing parts are provided for free at the factory, eliminating the need for additional purchases by customers. It perfectly adapts to the production and processing needs of multi-category non-standard parts, and solves problems such as unstable accuracy, low efficiency, and cumbersome operation and maintenance from the hardware level.
As the source factory of professional turret milling machines, Qingdao Taizheng provides one-to-one exclusive services throughout the process to ensure that the equipment is put into production efficiently.
After confirming the cooperation model, the factory strictly implements 108 process inspections and 128 key component accuracy verifications. It also completes a 72-hour test run, cutting performance, and electrical safety test before the finished product leaves the factory to ensure that the equipment leaves the factory with zero faults.
After the equipment is produced, the factory will bear the freight and insurance throughout the entire process and deliver it safely to the customer’s factory in Nanjing.
Then arrange for senior engineers to come to your door to complete the complete set of work such as equipment positioning and installation, precise debugging, and precision calibration.
At the same time, free special training is carried out for workshop operators, covering practical content such as equipment operation, parameter adjustment, daily maintenance, simple troubleshooting, etc., to help employees get started quickly and ensure that the equipment is put into production quickly.
Subsequently, we will rely on the six major maintenance service centers across the country to provide customers with nearby after-sales guarantee and respond to operation and maintenance needs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Three months after the MX-4HG Qingdao Taizheng turret milling machine was put into production, the production efficiency of the customer’s workshop has been improved in all aspects, and the improvement data can be checked intuitively.
The equipment processing yield rate has increased from about 81% to more than 96%, the part rework rate has been greatly reduced, and quality problems such as dimensional deviations and surface defects of precision parts have been completely solved.
The average processing time for a single non-standard component has been shortened by 16%, the time spent on production changes and debugging has been reduced by 42%, and the overall production capacity of the workshop has been steadily increased.
Thanks to the stable performance of the annual attenuation rate of equipment accuracy ≤ 5%, there is no need for frequent shutdowns for calibration, effectively reducing the loss of ineffective working hours.
At the same time, the supply of affordable original parts and long-term warranty services can reduce customers’ equipment operation and maintenance costs by 22%, completely getting rid of the problems of high-priced parts and lag in after-sales, and greatly improving the cost-effectiveness of production.
The implementation of this cooperation with Nanjing Kekai Machinery fully confirms the core strength of Qingdao Taizheng Precision Machinery Co., Ltd. as the source factory of turret milling machines.
The factory has its own casting workshop and a full set of precision processing equipment. It produces and sells its products without middlemen’s premiums. It independently controls the entire process from casting molding, component assembly to finished product testing.
Relying on the strict quality control system of refined inspection of the whole machine and full test machine before leaving the factory, we ensure that each piece of equipment has stable accuracy and outstanding rigidity.
At the same time, the brand has a complete service system, with on-site installation training by engineers, nationwide after-sales service, 18-month long warranty, lifetime paid maintenance and other services to fully protect customer production.
With reliable product quality and practical services, turret milling machine products continue to help various processing plants such as mechanical processing and non-standard manufacturing to reduce costs and increase efficiency, becoming the preferred direction of cost-effectiveness in the industry.
