Sustainability in machining

Responsible use of resources, protecting the environment and keeping CO2 emissions to a minimum wherever we can – these have been MAPAL’s commitments since day one. Accordingly, the principle of sustainability plays a key role in every product and business division.

The UNIQ hydraulic chuck – Longer clamping, reduced energy use
With the UNIQ hydraulic chuck, MAPAL is offering a much more sustainable alternative to the classic shrink chuck. The UNIQ has exactly the same tool restriction stipulated by the DIN. But it has a tool life that is ten times as high, as the material is not worn out by shrinking processes. Overall, the hydraulic chuck requires much less energy, doing away with energy-intensive shrinking processes.

MQL technology – Save energy and protect the environment
Minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) is a particularly important feature for the energy efficiency of a machine tool. After all, the highpressure pumps required for cooling lubricant use a lot of energy. Cooling lubricant disposal – or rather, recycling – is also no longer required. MQL technology therefore helps protect the environment and ensures a much safer workplace. MAPAL offers an extensive portfolio of tools for use with MQL technology.

组合刀具 – 致力于减少加工时间和生产辅助时间
在减少能源需求方面,组合刀具特别有效,因而特别具有可持续性。在设计工艺流程时,MAPAL集团通常会尽可能地将更多的加工步骤组合在一把刀具中。通过该设计理念,不仅节省了刀具更换和工艺路径,也减少了辅助时间并因而极大地节约了能源。通过在一个工序流程完成不同孔径、倒角和平面的加工,使得整体的加工时间得以大幅缩短。此外,和采用单一功能的刀具相比较,投入使用的材料也显著减少。

刀头可更换系统和可转位刀片 – 力求最佳化地利用资源
有效利用资源的一个典型例子是:刀头可更换系统。对于某些刀具,例如:TTD-Tritan-Drill型刀具,占用成本的昂贵硬质合金仅限用于刀头。现在,当刀头达到其使用寿命时,无需更换整个刀具,只需更换一下刀头即可。对于可转位刀片,主要资源也同样能够以最佳的方式使用。如果是切削刃出现了磨损,则可以将刀片进行旋转或者翻转,然后继续使用。

重新研磨制备 – 恢复100%的功效性能 使用寿命得到大幅延长
所有这些PCD聚晶金刚石-刀具、整体硬质合金刀具和带有可转位刀片或者ISO-元件的刀具,其共同点是全部都可以重新经过修整研磨后再投入使用。在此必须要强调声明的是:经过重新研磨、更换切削刃和重新涂层,这些刀具可以恢复其100%的功效和性能。因而,刀具的使用寿命得以延长了几倍——并且显着节省了重要资源的投用。
