Electrified drives

Automobile manufacturers and suppliers are facing new challenges when it comes to components for electric motors. The example of the housing of an electric motor shows how big these challenges are: Compared to a transmission housing, this has to be manufactured within significantly tighter tolerances, since the accuracy has a decisive influence on the efficiency of the motor.

In addition, due to the special structure, such as integrated cooling channels, the electric motor housing is usually significantly thinner than a transmission housing. In addition, bearing bushes made of steel materials are pressed into some of these housings. Special protection shields in the tool ensure that steel chips do not come into contact with the aluminium surfaces during processing and damage them.

Machining requirements and features of different housing types


スタータハウジング加工時の基本手順 

加工プロセスおよび工具は、取り代の状況、機械装置、クランプシステムに応じて個別に設計されます。そうすることで部品に作用する切削力が可能な限り低く保たれます。スタータ穴の加工は、3つのステップに分かれています。前加工、中仕上げ加工および仕上げ加工に分けられます。

スタータハウジングの外周加工

電気モーターのスタータハウジングの外周加工は、チャレンジングな課題です。これらのハウジングは多くの場合、チューブ型またはポット型で、電気モーターの効率にとって極めて重要です。この工程では、いくつかの課題を克服しなければなりません。冷却回路用のリブが組み込まれた薄肉のアルミ製ハウジングは、直径精度、形状、位置の公差の点で最高の精度が要求され、異なる直径間の同芯度が非常に重要になります。
