PRECISION GRINDING TECHNOLOGY
From prototyping to high volume production, BAUCOR® provides highest quality technical expertise and capabilities in manufacturing your cutting tools.
It is a process of imagining, drafting, and designing a blade that responds to the needs of the end-user customer. The key features of a blade are its functionalities, durability, and wear resistance. Baucor offers unparalleled expertise and skillful engineers to ensure that your blades fulfill your needs and meet your requirements. We will help you turn your ideas into tangible reality, from drafting to detailed design, material selection, fabrication, and quality control.
The design process of a blade consists of six steps:
Imagine:
At this stage, the blade is just an idea. We discuss with our client to get the idea behind the environment and functionalities of the blade:
• What are the main features?
• Which problem does it solve?
• For which people is this product-oriented?
• Where will it be used?
• How can it be enhanced?
• Market researchers, who are the competitors?
• Are there similar solutions?
Define:
From the previous stage, the key features of the blade, its material, coating, and its visual aspect are set, next we need to define its characteristics precisely:
• What are the overall dimensions?
• What are the materials and their aspects?
• What does it require to function?
Draft:
At this stage, all characteristics of the blade are defined. Our designers will make sketches, and preliminary and feasible designs, then share them with the client to get their approval. We will also help our clients choose the correct materials and finishes. The blade is now a sketch or a rough model.
Design:
After our client decides on a concept, our engineers will develop the technical solutions, define the materials using CAD software, make technical files for manufacturing, and assess risks and ergonomics. A design review is organized with our client, after which we decide to confirm or improve the design before starting the prototyping.
Prototype:
It is a crucial step to get a hold of the final product and test its functionalities and visual aspects. Prototyping can help reduce the cost of a product drastically. It may add to the development time but will benefit the production line by minimizing tooling costs and functional or visual problems.
Validate:
It describes testing the prototype and comparing it to the client's requirements. Validation help decides whether to start the fabrication or to improve the product features. If the prototype is not validated after the review, the product will loop back to the draft, design, or prototype. A successful blade design goes through all six steps to fabrication.
To make a design, designers use several tools, including:
• Graphic design tools: for sketches
• CAD software: to create 3D models of the product.
• Simulation software runs a numerical simulation to test stress, deformation, etc.
• Rendering software: to visualize the product before fabrication and prototyping.
• Office software: to make presentations and reports
