Workshop style - head workshop

The heading workshop is the first core forming process in the production of hardware products (such as screws, bolts, rivets, pins, etc.), also known as the "cold heading workshop" or "forging forming workshop". Its core task is to efficiently and precisely process the head and rod prototypes of various fasteners and hardware parts from coil stock (wire) through cold heading forging technology at room temperature.

1. Core leasing and importance of the workshop:

1. Forming and foundation: It determines the basic dimensions of the product (such as screws), including the head shape (round head, flat head, hexagonal head, hexagonal socket, etc.), the diameter and length of the shank.


2. Efficiency Core: Utilizing a multi-station cold heading machine, the production efficiency is extremely high, capable of producing hundreds of products per minute, making it a core component of mass production.


3. Material saving: It belongs to the cold processing technology with little or no cutting, and the material utilization rate can reach over 95%, which is much higher than that of turning processing, greatly reducing the cost of raw materials.


4. Quality foundation: Through cold forging deformation, the flow direction of metal fibers is continuous and complete, enhancing the mechanical strength, surface finish, and wear resistance of the product

II. Workshop Management and Quality Control:

1. Safe production: Due to the large tonnage and loud noise of the cold heading machine, it is necessary to strictly adhere to safety operation procedures, such as wearing earplugs and strictly prohibiting bare-handed contact with moving parts.


2. First article inspection: When each batch of products is initiated for production, the dimensions of the first article (such as head diameter, head thickness, rod diameter, and length) must be measured. Batch production can only proceed after confirmation of conformity.


3. Process inspection: Quality control personnel need to conduct regular spot checks on product dimensions and appearance (checking for cracks, scratches, misalignment, etc.), and monitor whether the equipment operating parameters are stable.


4. "6S" management: Good on-site management (organization, rectification, cleaning, sanitation, etiquette, and safety) is the foundation for ensuring efficient and high-quality production.
