Productivity Gain in Production of Brompton Hinge
2007


The Brompton hinge is the biggest change on the bike for 15 years, and technically one of the most challenging ever. Brompton finally placed an order for a Haas VF-1 40-taper vertical machining centre.
Before the arrival of the Haas, all of Brompton’s hinges were manufactured on a machine tool designed and built inhouse.  “The bespoke machine is fairly inflexible. So it was decided to replace it. However, the problem wasn’t finding a machine to do the job, it was finding a solution to the technical aspects of the project, such as the workholding, methodology and the ergonomics. It seemed there were a million ways of making the components, and they needed  the most efficient and cost-effective. Haas UK set about designing a method for clamping the cast-iron hinge, including a solution that would be able to compensate for the irregularities of the cast faces.

The solution is based on a Haas QuikCube multi-fixture system, where a hinge casting is loaded using an innovative locating/aligning mechanism. This is repeated four times – on the four faces of the cube – and the whole QuikCube is loaded on the VF-1. The rotary table and right-angle heads on the VF-1 mean that the hinges are completed in a single setup – four at a time – something that Brompton was never able to achieve previously. Tolerances are ± 0.05 mm on critical dimensions. The Haas VF-1 improved efficiency, reduced cost base and increased productivity by 20 percent with the same workforce. It also provided better accuracy  and flexibility to make different types of hinges. The cube can handle new parts. So just load the news parts and press the Cycle Start button for making different designs of hinges.

The operator has found programming the Haas as easy as riding a bike. Quoting the training operation as a “real success,” the operator is regularly shaving time from machining cycles. Important time savings are being realized and the Haas VF-1 will process 45,000 hinges required in a year with plenty of capacity for more.
