Hannover, Germany – From September 22nd to 26th, 2025, EMO Hannover 2025, the world's premier trade fair for manufacturing technology, was held grandly at the Hannover Exhibition Center.
As a bellwether for the global metalworking industry, this edition of the exhibition attracted numerous renowned companies from around the world, all gathering to showcase the latest industry technologies and innovative achievements.
Suzhou Yongpu Precision Technology Co., Ltd. made a remarkable appearance at the show, presenting its independently developed YPP Drill® WFP Wheel Hub Drill. The product's outstanding performance and innovative technology earned it the VOGEL 2025 PI Award, allowing Yongpu Precision to shine brightly at EMO and win high recognition from global industry experts and customers.
The wheel hub bearing unit is a critical safety component in the automotive chassis system, operating in complex environments and demanding extremely high requirements for materials and machining precision. Machining the bottom hole requires minimizing deformation, avoiding work hardening of the inner hole, while ensuring durability and stability – posing significant challenges for hole drilling tools. Deeply understanding these industry pain points, Suzhou Yongpu Precision dedicated itself to R&D and successfully launched the YPP Drill® WFP Wheel Hub Drill. Specifically tailored for machining the bottom holes of automotive wheel hub bearing units, it precisely overcomes these machining difficulties.
The design of the YPP Drill® WFP Wheel Hub Drill highlights several key features. In terms of flute design, the optimized chip flute provides a wide chip pocket, ensuring excellent chip evacuation. Special treatment of the margins significantly increases margin strength, enhancing the stability of the tool after regrinding. The cutting edge design is particularly ingenious: an arc-shaped relief face offers high-strength support for the cutting edge, ensuring its security; a specially designed chisel edge maintains strength while improving centering capability and reducing axial force during penetration; a curved cutting edge ensures sharp cutting, reduces cutting resistance, and improves chip-breaking performance; and special treatment of the drill point reduces the risk of work hardening on the hole wall. Furthermore, meticulous edge honing not only optimizes the hone size to reduce the risk of chipping but also enhances the tool's wear resistance through a smooth honed finish. Coupled with intelligent coating technology, characterized by low thermal conductivity and high wear resistance, the tool maintains excellent performance even under harsh working conditions.
During the EMO China Day event at the exhibition, the booth shared by the Yongpu Group's OMK Materials and YPP Precision Tools attracted high-quality professional visitors who stopped to view the exhibits and engage in discussions. Numerous internationally renowned companies from the automotive manufacturing and mechanical processing sectors showed strong interest in the YPP Drill® WFP Wheel Hub Drill, engaging the Yongpu Precision team in in-depth discussions regarding product performance, application cases, and potential cooperation. Throughout the event, the Yongpu Precision team demonstrated the company's strength and professionalism through their technical expertise and enthusiastic service.
The VOGEL 2025 PI Award aims to recognize companies that have demonstrated excellence in expanding into overseas markets and show outstanding innovation in their products and technologies. This award not only signifies high recognition for the YPP Drill® WFP Wheel Hub Drill but also endorses Suzhou Yongpu Precision's years of commitment to technological innovation and active exploration of the international market. Looking ahead, Suzhou Yongpu Precision will continue to increase R&D investment, constantly improving product quality and technological prowess. The company is committed to meeting global customer demands with superior products and services, contributing further to the international development of China's cutting tool industry.
