3. Manufacturing Techniques for JIS S65C

Producing JIS S65C requires techniques that align with Japanese manufacturing precision. Voici le processus typique:

1. Sidérurgie:
   • JIS S65C is made using an Four à arc électrique (AEP) (common in Japan for recycling scrap steel, s'aligner sur les objectifs de développement durable) ou Four à oxygène de base (BOF). The process focuses on tight control of carbon content (0.62–0.69%) to meet JIS G4801 standards.
2. Roulement:
   • Après la sidérurgie, le métal est Laminé à chaud (à 1,100 – 1,200 °C) en barres, feuilles, or coils—standard formats for Japanese spring manufacturers. Pour ressorts de précision (comme des ressorts de soupape), c'est Laminé à froid (température ambiante) pour améliorer la finition de surface et la précision dimensionnelle (critical for fitting JIS-standard components).
3. Formage de précision:
   • Springs are shaped using Japanese-standard techniques:
     • Spring Coiling: For coil springs—wrapping cold-rolled wire around a mandrel at diameters matching JIS specifications (par ex., for car suspension springs).
     • Estampillage: Pour les ressorts plats : presser l'acier plat pour lui donner des formes (par ex., electrical switch springs) using high-precision dies.
     • Pliage: For leaf springs—heating and bending steel into curved strips (used for light truck suspensions).
4. Traitement thermique:
   • Heat treatment is the most critical step for JIS S65C’s spring performance:
     • Recuit: Chauffer à 800 – 850 °C, puis refroidir lentement pour ramollir l'acier pour le formage (done before shaping to make bending easier).
     • Trempe: Après avoir formé, chauffer à 810 – 850 °C, puis refroidir rapidement dans l'huile pour durcir l'acier (locks in strength).
     • Trempe: Réchauffer à 350 – 450 °C à atteindre tempérament printanier—reduces brittleness while keeping the strength needed for springs.
5. Usinage:
   • Pour les conceptions de ressorts complexes (par ex., custom leaf springs), usinage post-formage (Affûtage ou Fraisage) coupe l'excédent de matériau et garantit des tolérances serrées (±0.01 mm for small electrical springs), meeting Japanese quality standards.
6. Traitement de surface:
   • Étapes facultatives pour améliorer la durabilité, common in Japanese applications:
     • Placage: Zingage (per JIS H8610) for corrosion resistance—used for outdoor tools or automotive springs.
     • Revêtement: Revêtement en poudre (per JIS K5600) for aesthetic appeal and extra rust protection—popular for visible components like hand tool springs.
     • Noircissement: Low-cost oxide layer (per JIS K5623) for minor rust prevention—used for indoor machinery springs.
7. Contrôle de qualité:
   • Des tests rigoureux garantissent la conformité aux normes JIS:
     • Analyse chimique: Verify carbon and manganese content via spectrometry (per JIS G1253).
     • Essais de traction: Check tensile and yield strength (per JIS Z2241).
     • Test de charge de ressort: Ensure springs return to shape after 100,000+ cycles (per JIS B2704).
     • Contrôle dimensionnel: Use CMMs to confirm compliance with JIS dimensional standards.

4. Études de cas: JIS S65C in Action

Real-world Japanese examples show how JIS S65C solves spring challenges.

Étude de cas 1: Japanese Compact Car Suspension Spring Durability

A Tokyo-based car manufacturer faced frequent coil spring failures (après 75,000 kilomètres) in their compact sedans. The original springs used a low-carbon steel that deformed under heavy loads (par ex., carrying passengers and luggage). Switching to JIS S65C coil springs (tempéré à 42 HRC and zinc-plated) durée de vie prolongée du ressort 180,000 kilomètres. Cela a réduit les demandes de garantie de 75% and aligned with the brand’s reputation for reliability in Japanese and global markets.

Étude de cas 2: Agricultural Machinery Spring Performance

A Osaka-based tractor manufacturer struggled with rice harvester spring failures (chaque 600 heures) using a generic carbon steel. The springs wore out quickly in muddy, dusty farm conditions. Replacing them with JIS S65C springs (tempéré à 45 CRH) increased life to 1,800 heures. This cut maintenance downtime for farmers by 66% and made the tractors more competitive in Japanese and Southeast Asian agricultural markets.
