Seco Tools India (P) Ltd offers Tooling Solutions for Front Suspension Components.
CV joint:
Constant velocity (CV) joints allow drive shafts to transmit power at variable angles and constant rotational speeds. The joints are often made from medium carbon steel, posing chip control issues when machined in fully automated operations. Hard machining operations are also necessary after components have been heat treated.
Steering knuckle:
Steering knuckles contain wheel hubs or spindles, and attach to the suspension components of a vehicle. Made from nodular cast iron, the components are critical to front suspension safety, so quality surface finishes, precision radii and perfect machined flatness are required. Processing involves custom tools such as disc mills, drills and reamers.
Brake calliper:
Brake callipers are the assemblies housing vehicle brake pads and brake pistons. As a critical safety component, brake callipers are made from nodular cast iron, and require custom tooling for generating radii and flat surfaces while maintaining critical surface finishes.
Brake disc:
For stopping wheel rotation, brake discs or rotors are usually made of grey cast iron, but in some instances are produced from composites such as reinforced carbon or ceramic matrix composites. As a safety component, brake discs require specific surface finishes, radii, flatness and parallelism. Most often, custom tooling such as combination turning heads and drills are used in machining process. The casting, ferrite content and ageing can all affect brake disc machinability.
