high-precision mechanical spare parts

At Hansheng Automation, we specialize in delivering high-precision mechanical spare parts for the global tobacco machinery industry. Recently, we have successfully received a demand from an international customer for customized production of Cutting Rollers for HLP2 cigarette packaging machines. We provide them with a perfect alternative solution.

The HLP2 packer is widely recognized as a high-performance machine in the tobacco industry, and its cutting roller is responsible for continuously and precisely cutting foil and paper. As a high-consumption component, it requires timely spare parts replacement to prevent excessive downtime.

This is also a common challenge our customers frequently encounter. If they purchase original OEM cutting rollers, the costs are relatively high, and the lead times are generally too long. Therefore, they need a reliable manufacturing partner capable of providing alternative machined parts that match OEM quality but with shorter delivery cycles.

 

Our Comprehensive Manufacturing Solution

 

Hansheng Automation, as a professional manufacturer of precision mechanical components, brings extensive practical experience in precision CNC machining and materials engineering. We provide our customers with end-to-end manufacturing solutions, covering everything from material selection to final heat treatment.

 

Material Selection (D2 Tool Steel)

To ensure maximum durability and a sharp, long-lasting cutting edge, we selected D2 tool steel as the base material. Known for its high carbon and high chromium content, D2 steel offers excellent wear resistance.

 

High-Precision CNC Machining

  • Use our advanced Vertical Machining Centers and CNC Lathes (Brother TC-S2A) for rough and semi precision machining of the rollers.
  • In order to achieve the strict tolerance required for cutting edges, we use precision grinding machines to strictly control the machining accuracy within ± 0.005mm.
  • For complex contour machining, our Seibu Wire Electric Discharge Machine (WEDM) M50B ensures extremely precise molding, allowing it to be seamlessly installed on customers' HLP2 machines.

 

Advanced Heat Treatment

To maximize the service life of the D2 steel cutting roller, we perform Vacuum Quenching on the component. This advanced heat treatment process effectively prevents surface oxidation and minimizes dimensional distortion. After treatment, the cutting rollers achieve an ideal hardness of HRC 60-62, resulting in exceptional toughness and wear resistance.

 

What we can bring to our customers

  • Highly Competitive Pricing: Purchasing costs are significantly lower than original OEM parts.
  • Shorter Lead Times: Rapid production and delivery cycles effectively alleviate customers' spare parts inventory pressure.
  • OEM Level Performance: The flawless operation of the rollers proves that our customized parts can fully match the quality of the original factory.
  • Responsible Service: Throughout the entire project lifecycle, we maintain smooth communication and technical support.
