Geely Flexible Bearing plays an important role in modern industry, especially in the automotive field, and its manufacturing process faces many difficulties.
First, the difficulty of material selection and processing. To meet the high strength, high toughness and good wear resistance requirements of flexible bearings under different working conditions, it is extremely important to control the purity and organizational structure of the material. Suitable materials must be able to withstand large radial and axial loads and maintain stable performance during frequent deformation. For example, although some special alloy materials have excellent performance, they are difficult to process, have complex heat treatment processes, and are prone to problems such as uneven organization, which affects the final performance of the bearing.
Second, the challenge of high-precision processing. Flexible bearings have extremely high requirements for dimensional accuracy and form and position tolerances. The processing accuracy of its raceways, balls and other components must be controlled within a very small range. Any slight deviation may cause abnormal wear, vibration and increased noise during the operation of the bearing. Moreover, during the processing, due to the flexible characteristics of the parts, the control of clamping and cutting force needs to be finely adjusted, otherwise it is easy to deform the parts, further affecting the processing accuracy.
However, Geely has also actively explored a breakthrough in the face of these difficulties. In terms of materials, through cooperation with material research institutions, in-depth research on material formulation and heat treatment process optimization. Use advanced vacuum melting technology to ensure material purity, develop accurate heat treatment process curves, make the internal structure of the material uniform, and significantly improve material performance.
In high-precision processing, introduce advanced automated processing equipment, such as high-precision CNC grinders, ultra-precision lathes, etc. Use advanced detection methods, such as three-coordinate measuring instruments, to conduct real-time monitoring and feedback, and use intelligent processing systems to automatically adjust processing parameters according to detection data to ensure that every part can meet ultra-high precision requirements. At the same time, strengthen professional training for operators, improve their operating skills and process control capabilities, and ensure the high-quality completion of Geely Flexible Bearing manufacturing processes from many aspects, laying a solid foundation for the excellent performance of Geely's related products.
