Key Technical Innovations

Innovation Point One: Multi-Axis Linkage CNC System and Industrial CAM Software

Original Point Intelligent independently developed multi-axis linkage CNC systems and industrial CAM software to solve the deep integration challenges between software and laser processing machine tools. Addressing the technical difficulty of smooth transitions between end cutting edges and side cutting edges of complex structured tools, the research team developed proprietary controllable laser processing CAM software from fundamental algorithms.

Key intelligent features include:

  • Automatic laser processing path generation based on drawings by setting tool parameters such as relief angle, cutting width, and length
  • Automatic establishment of tool processing models through contours, enabling more intuitive and flexible processing strategies
  • Pre-processing 3D simulation of material removal with real-time strategy adjustments based on simulation results

Innovation Point Two: High-Precision Laser Positioning System

Original Point Intelligent overcame energy drift and poor spot positioning accuracy issues caused by the inability to use mechanical positioning in laser processing. The company developed a high-precision laser positioning system through three core technological breakthroughs:

  • First-of-its-kind high-precision slide rails with dual-axis linkage correction system for laser focus spot and processing position adjustment
  • Multi-optical path collaborative processing technology for large-area curved surface high-precision laser processing
  • Integrated CNC system achieving coordinated control of mechanical axes, 3D galvanometers, and laser multi-parameter control

Innovation Point Three: High-Precision Laser Processing Technology for Complex PCD Tools

Original Point Intelligent developed high-precision laser processing technology specifically for complex-shaped PCD tools, solving processing challenges of large curvatures, multiple cutting edges, and narrow cutting bands, significantly improving PCD tool processing efficiency and quality.

Through innovative “full laser” manufacturing processes, Original Point Intelligent achieved breakthrough performance in PCD tool processing: contour accuracy ≤8μm, surface roughness <0.3μm, maximum cutting edge count of 180, and minimum cutting edge width of 10μm. Compared to traditional grinding processes, single-piece processing time was reduced from 675 minutes to 85 minutes, improving overall processing efficiency by nearly 8 times.

Market Applications and Impact

The Light 5X 60V five-axis laser machining center has achieved industrial applications in superhard tools, aerospace, and other fields, serving benchmark enterprises such as Zhuzhou Cemented Carbide Cutting Tools Co., Ltd. With the rapid development of 3C electronics, automotive manufacturing, aerospace, and other industries, the processing demand for high-performance difficult-to-machine materials such as superhard materials, carbide, and coated carbide will continue to increase.

Customer feedback indicates significant improvements in precision processing production capabilities. The equipment resolved previous issues of insufficient accuracy and low efficiency in processing complex contour tools, enabling customers to undertake more complex part processing tasks. Workpieces can complete rough and finish processing in a single setup, saving considerable labor and time costs.

Future Development Strategy

Original Point Intelligent will continue launching more competitive products. In technological innovation, the company will focus on deep integration of ultrafast lasers with five-axis linkage and CNC systems. For market expansion, the company plans to deepen strategic cooperation with international giants and establish technical service centers in Europe and America. In industrial ecosystem development, Original Point Intelligent will collaborate with leading enterprises in 3C, automotive, mold, and other industries to build ecological alliances, driving the company’s transformation from single equipment supply to full industrial chain empowerment.
