The adoption of CNC (Computer Numerical Control) technology across industries, along with Indian manufacturers’ prominence as CNC manufacturing trailblazers is impacting multiple industries, such as CNC Spindles. As companies shift to CNC machines, the demand for CNC spindles is rising and is poised to continue rising as companies continue to prioritize efficiency and accuracy in manufacturing processes. Since motor spindles form a critical element across diverse industries including consumer electronics, automotive, manufacturing, and more; their demand, particularly for compatibility with CNC machines, will only continue to rise driven by the growing requirement for precision machining components.
Within this industry, although several companies are competing to be at the top, the 2012-established Triquench India, based in Ahmedabad, has successfully carved a distinguished position for itself. The company, known for its spindle motor efficiency, precision, speed range, durability, as well as compatibility with diverse CNC systems, stands as an innovative partner in developing spindles suitable for varied applications. The company’s outstanding feature is not just its broad product range, but more so its ability to effortlessly collaborate with clients to offer customized solutions to even the most daunting challenges.
Precision Solutions
Over the years, Triquench has created a useful portfolio of products, featuring an assortment of spindle motors, CNC spindles, air-cooled and water-cooled spindle motors ATC and MTC, belt-driven spindles, spindle accessories, CNC router spindles, and spindle bearings. Primarily focused on CNC spindles, the company excels in the manufacturing and repair services for the products.
Maintaining precision in CNC machine spindle assembly requires careful application of engineering principles and methodologies, of which, Triquench follows key practices like using high-quality materials for spindle components and strictly adhering to tight tolerances during manufacturing and machining procedures. Moreover, the company employs advanced techniques for machining processes which promotes high accuracy in production and superior surface finish. Furthermore, the company implements vigorous quality control measures at various stages ensuring that problems and deviations are corrected immediately.
In addition to these practices, the firm also carries out balancing procedures for the spindle components which is critical for preventing vibrations, conducts assembly procedures in controlled environments with regulated temperatures and humidity to prevent deviations, and designs specialized jigs and fixtures to ensure proper alignment of components.
“Triquench India focuses on innovative design for CNC machine spindles to enhance performance and reliability. This often involves precision engineering, advanced materials, and meticulous manufacturing processes. Innovations may include improved bearing systems for reduced friction, optimized cooling mechanisms to prevent overheating, and enhanced vibration dampening for smoother operation. These design elements collectively contribute to the overall efficiency, longevity, and reliability of CNC machine spindles, ensuring optimal performance in machining processes. And thus, our primary concern for our customer must be a right selection of product, and do give weightage on decreased power consumption and reduction in production cycle time”, further shares Parag Shah, Director.
Customization of Solutions
Beyond its standard range of products, the company also collaborates with clients to offer customized solutions that meet their unique needs precisely. A challenging undertaking for Triquench in this segment came with Mahle BEHR, a Pune-based (German Origin) automotive air conditioning and engine cooling systems manufacturer that sought to make a new test rig for big cars’ AC component viscous clutch brake assembly. Understanding the specifics of this requirement, the company provided the HSK100 spindle, which worked wonderfully and led to repeat orders.
The design featured a unique 1.5-meter-long spindle along with a clamping and de-clamping mechanism, inline torque measuring, and driving the spindle from the middle of the assembly with the belt. This project not only highlighted Triquench as an industry trailblazer but also solidified its potential as a go-to partner that can design innovative products in unconventional or unstandardized configurations to meet the client’s needs.
Throughout all of its endeavors, Triquench strives to ensure that the quality of its solutions should be unbeatable. To achieve this goal, the company places multiple checks and assessments from the start of the manufacturing process to the very end. In addition to inspections of the materials and products, the staff also undergoes several trainings, ensuring that no room for error remains whether through machines or through manual intervention.
“Quality assurance processes in spindle assembly typically involve rigorous inspections at various stages. Triquench India often uses precision tools to measure dimensions, conduct visual inspections, and employ testing equipment to ensure proper functionality. Challenges are addressed through continuous training of assembly personnel, implementing strict quality control protocols, and utilizing advanced technologies for automated inspection to enhance precision and repeatability. Regular audits, feedback loops, and continuous improvement initiatives also contribute to maintaining consistently high-quality standards”, adds Parag.
