Cutting Tools TRIZ Cases
- Blender blade formed of titanium or titanium alloy
See how titanium alloy blades with selectively hardened leading edges maintain toughness at −50
- Forged Hammer Head With Integrated Side Nail Puller
A single forging process forms the side nail puller and notch without milling, cutting material waste, cost, and failure risk.
- Cold-Formed Wire Ends for Larger Cross-Sections in Two Steps
Cold-forming both wire ends in two steps increases end cross-section without extra passes, cutting material waste and production cost.
- Rotating Wheel Wire Forming for Dual-End Cold Machining
A rotating wheel turns wire sections vertical for dual-end cold forming, avoiding undercuts while keeping the machine compact.
- Surgical Stapler Cartridge Jaw Stamping for Near-Net Precision
Near-net stamping followed by selective machining cuts lower jaw waste and production time while preserving tight tolerances and interchangeability.
- Forged Fan Clutch Wrench Rod With Integral Wing-Plate Head
A single forging and cutout process forms an integral wing-plate head and shaft, boosting wrench rod strength while reducing manufacturing steps.
- Surgical Stapler Lower Jaw Stamping for Precision With Less Machining
Near-net-shape stamping plus selective machining cuts lower jaw production time and material waste while preserving surgical stapler tolerances.
- Fastener Recess Geometry for Stable Stick-Fit Driver Alignment
Localized tapered recess surfaces create wedge friction that improves axial alignment and resists cam-out under high torque.
- Forge Die Regeneration Using 3D-Scanned Welding Paths
3D scanning and automated zigzag weld planning rebuild worn forge dies with precise deposition, less material waste, and repeatable quality.
- Hybrid Open-End Wrench Weight Reduction via Steel Cover and Alloy Body
A hybrid open-end wrench combines a steel cover with an alloy body to reduce weight while maintaining structural rigidity.
- Ceramic Refractory Insulation Block with Reinforcing Rods
Reinforcing rods embedded in the ceramic body reduce crack propagation and extend service life for hot press platens.
- Circular Knife Sharpening Device With Rotating Abrasive Wheel
Rotating an abrasive wheel around a fixed circular blade ensures uniform sharpening without tedious manual rotation.
- Elastic C-Shaped Steel Block for Ratchet Wrench
Thermal treatment converts a solid steel block into an elastic C-shaped component, eliminating multiple sheets to simplify assembly and reduce costs.
- Ironing Mold Non-Parallel Clearance for Uniform Thickness
Non-parallel mold clearance matches uneven plate thickness to reduce surface layer damage and powdery residue generation.
- Honeycomb Extrusion Die Fabrication via Pre-Screened Abrasive Blades
Pre-screening abrasive blades by runout and thickness reduces slot dimension variability in honeycomb extrusion dies while maintaining high manufacturing speed.
- Segmented Hot Forging Die with Nickel Alloy Layer
Segmented concentric die pieces with nickel alloy layers reduce weight and scrap while maintaining shape accuracy.
