Customer Story: Achieving 130% Output with 70% CAPEX Savings

In the 5G era, electronic manufacturers are facing more challenges than ever!

Customers demand higher precision, better cosmetic, shorter cycle time, and longer tool life for more complicated workpieces of more advanced materials with a smaller budget! Machining hard-brittle materials, graphite, titanium alloy, CFRP, etc has become the bottleneck for many traditional metalworking manufacturers. How can they survive the new 5G era and capture business opportunities with a limited equipment investment budget? Conprofe Ultrasonic Precision Machining Center UHB-400 would be your best option!

After years of R&D and consolidation, Conprofe’s ultrasonic rotary machining technologies have been granted over 300 domestic and international core patents. We are the first to realize the massive application of such ultrasonic machining technologies in high-volume production worldwide with many successful cases.

Both Conprofe’s 3-axis and 5-axis machining centers employ ultrasonic spindles developed with its own expertise, which enables cost-effective machining for hard-brittle materials, such as ceramics, optical glass, sapphire, composite materials, etc. in various sectors like 3C, automotive, medical, aerospace and aviation.

In rotary ultrasonic machining, the cutting tool is ultrasonically vibrated in the axial direction while fed toward the workpiece to remove material. Chipping, micro-cracking and sub-surface damages can be significantly reduced while tool life and efficiency improve notably.

UHB-400 is the most compact model among Conprofe’s machine tools with consideration of space/rent saving. When equipped with the world’s smallest 5th-axis rotary table, which is specially designed to empower UHB-400 with an option to install the zero-point quick-change pallet, the machining center can easily handle 5-axis multi-sided processing with one-time workpiece clamping. Workpiece changeover time decreases, scratches and damages are avoided, and the yield improves.
