TOOL MAINTENANCE
Tool maintenance has a major impact on the quality of the product and tooling life.
We summarized the time and method of appropriate maintenance this time.
TIMING OF RE-GRINDING
In the case of punching hole, tool and material contact repeatedly, and as the number
of hits increases, tool wear progresses and the following phenomenon appears in the
processed product.
Normally, the re-grinding time of punches and dies is determined by the size of burrs. In addition,
it is recommended to regularly observe the condition of the cutting edge (sagging, chipping).
As the wear of the cutting edge progresses, it leads to troubles such as,
GRIND METHOD
Please always use coolant when grinding. Grinding with dry
or improper coolant may cause cracking or annealing of the
cutting edge, which may cause punch and die damage.
After regrinding, remove the polishing burr with a # 600 grinding stone,
Grinding
remove the coolant, and then apply a lubricant when incorporating it, wheel
because a polishing burr will occur.

Also, adjust the length of the punch or die by the amount of
dimensions ground and the punch head or shim.
■ KEY MAINTENANCE
It is recommended to replace it regularly as the wear of the turret key (key groove / key pin) has a
great effect on the quality of the processed product and the tooling life.
We will take care of the exchange key for tools.
Proper maintenance is recommended in order to use the tool for a longer time.
