Advancement in technology, especially, in the new materials technology has seen steady growth. The development and use of alternate raw materials are the key drivers behind the change in the manufacturing process around the world.
Although the roots of the diamond cutting tools date back to 1856, the sect has seen major development in the 50 years. The sector is still exploring for alternate materials to cobalt, particularly in the metal matrixes. Many R&D programs are driven towards the selection of materials based on the shape chemical composition, particle size and stability. Through these programs, it is proven that high purity irons are perfect to increase the performance of the DTC’s. Moreover, iron powders are affordable and sustainable as compared to cobalt powders.
The functional part of the DTCs are the diamond segments, which are now sintered with iron powders along with other metals and diamond. The iron sintered DTCs have significantly elevated the sales and production of the tools. This is proving to be a prime factor behind the selection of the diamond cutting tools. The iron powders have high diamond retention and strength that increases the performance and life of the DTCs.
The diamond cutting tools are embedded with iron powders as a bonding material. The best sources of this bonding material are Industrial Metal Powders (I) Pvt Ltd. They have a wide range of types as well as the particle sizes of iron powders, which are used with synthetic diamonds to produce DTCs. IMP is a master of producing the purest form of IRON called Electrolytic Iron Powders and ALLOY POWDERS called IMPALLOY SERIES.
Here’s whychoosingIMP for your iron & alloy powders needswill benefit your DTC business
Quality Suppliers:
IMP provides most convenient quality grades of IRON & ALLOY POWDERS that are produced with a coherent manufacturing process, using high-end technology. The company has built up special R&D house to test every single batch of iron & alloy powders. IMP has precise documents as well as system at every step of the manufacturing process maintain consists of every batch. The process is followed by ISO 9001 to get the objectives decided for QUALITY to achieved.
Raw Materials Testing:
The applications of Iron& Alloy powders have a wide range like DTCs, pharmaceutical, automotive, chemical, dyes & paints, food industry, etc. Every industry requires different kinds of physical and chemical properties for products. Therefore, it is important to use safe and precise raw materials. Even IMP follows strict testing guidelines with ISO 9001 while choosing raw materials- right from the selection and approval of the raw material, incoming testing parameters, vendor audit etc. IMP takes strong measures to ensure good quality of incoming materials. In DCT industries it is very vital need to get the consistency in every raw material due to requirement of more than two elements of different grades to be used. Hence, particle size, shape, density, oxygen content, surface area, chemistry etc are the major factors need to be considered while buying any types of raw materials.
Technical Support:
IMP powders manufacturing process is equipped with the best and high-end technological support. The IMP plant has a state-of-the-art manufacturing unit and in-house mini testing lab. IMP has an expert team to take care of raw materials, process, productapplications, after sales technical support, technical collaboration for new development etc. IMP has open culture to discuss on various projects and support IMP can provide, that has helped IMP to build up the trust on product and its stability across the globe. In DCT, it is very important to give the technical support to produce good quality of tools and abrasives,
Inventory:
This is the most cost related issue of every industry face over the world. Many peoples keep inventory for long time without need of urgency. Few keep some material in transit, some @ port and excess @ manufacturing unit. This is the major pain of the industries and IMP has identified that weakness of the industries and supporting to them by creating availability of materials to support the cost reduction in inventory. IMP has made a proper guideline and plan of action for each product and customers based on their monthly requirements. This system has supported end users to get various benefits of
- Reduction of inventory cost- no need invests capital amount.
- No need of shelf life issue of stocked materials
- Expanses for space
- Additional documents and manpower etc.
- Reduction in overheads.
IMP believes in maintain long-lasting relationships with its clients. Hence, all the information about their client’s requirement in saved in their database. So it saves-ups their client’s time and enables them to deliver consistent products every time. This also helps in streamlining their client’s business and avoid excessive inventory costs.
Cost Benefits:
Higher Quality @ affordable prices is the mantra of current business. Hence it is very important to provide quality with min prices to survive in market. DCT industries is facing the internal rivalry for prices more than quality due to imported powders and more of due to finished products selling prices in India. IMP is doing lots of inhouse developments and activities like KAIZEN to reduce the waste, variation in quality, cost of inventory which has helped to maintain the pricing for last almost 5 years for diamond tool industries and supporting to compete with quality @ affordable prices.
Conclusion:
Any industry who works for their growth of business, it is a key phase of getting right supplier with various benefits. The more stable supplier and its quality, more is the chances of growing the business due to consistency in finished products of different diamond cutting tools, its ability to perform well in different conditions, survive in pricing etc. Hence, to get such benefits while making diamond cutting tools, IMP has build up its reputation of one stop solution for various benefits to end users by making availability of indigenous materials, substitute for imported materials, technical support to run business smoothly, cost benefits etc. Manufacturing of any product is continuous process and to maintain the process more consistent, consistent supplier is a key raw material for process. So, select the best, produce the best & become the best- IMP is always there to support to you!!!
