▲ Sample of parts machining handled at MFK

"Tungsten" is said to have the highest melting point among metals and is difficult to process due to its high hardness. It is classified as a difficult-to-cut material alongside ceramics and stainless steel. It is very rare to find a manufacturer that can handle both material procurement and processing in Thailand. MFK Engineering Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as MFK), with which MC Technos collaborates, is a manufacturer that has been engaged in high-precision machining of difficult-to-cut materials including tungsten in Thailand for more than 10 years. In this article, we will introduce the company's strengths and machining technologies.

Utilizing the processing know-how of resistance welding electrodes for high-precision machining of difficult-to-cut materials

MFK manufactures welding electrodes and jigs/tools, as well as designs and fabricates machinery and equipment in Thailand. The parent company is Nagoya-based Mizutani Furaisu Kouki Co., Ltd., which specializes in processing difficult-to-cut materials. In Thailand, MFK focuses on the following three businesses. In particular, it has an established reputation for metal cutting, grinding, and brazing.

■ Design, manufacture and assembly of specialized machines
Manufacturing custom-made production equipment

■ Design and construction of factory facilities

Micron-level processing of a wide range of metals from copper to tungsten and more

MFK is skilled in metal processing due to its electrode manufacturing know-how accumulated over many years, and capable of processing a wide range of metals, from copper, the softest metal, to tungsten, the hardest.

【MFK's strengths]】
✔ Dealing with difficult-to-cut materials in Thailand
The company has a lot of experience handling a wide variety of metals (difficult-to-cut materials) such as tungsten, ceramics, and carbide.
✔ Capable of ultra-high-precision machining of difficult-to-cut materials in microns
Capable of handling tight tolerances of 1/1000 level.
✔ Extensive range of processing machines
It has a full range of equipment such as grinders, multi-tasking machines, wire EDM machines, and specialized facilities for surface finishing, that can achieve high-precision machining.

Are you not giving up on the idea of procuring high-quality parts with a tolerance of 1/1000 level using difficult-to-cut materials in Thailand thinking it would be difficult? MFK provides high-precision machined parts made of difficult-to-machine materials with the same standards as those in Japan through integrated production in Thailand. The company has a lot of experience in designing and manufacturing not only electrode parts, but also various metal parts and jigs.

・Molds
・Punches and dies
・Jigs and tools
・Welding tips, etc.

We have received consultations from many customers as the last result for their metalworking problems. Even for projects that have been rejected by other companies, there is a good chance that MFK can realize them. If you have any problems dealing with difficult-to-cut materials, please feel free to consult with us!
