Taigang's successful development of ballpoint pens with stainless steel new materials


Recently, after five years of research, the ballpoint pens developed and produced by TISCO have been successfully applied to domestic famous pen manufacturers with new stainless steel materials. The quality of the products is stable and the performance is equivalent to that of imported products. This marks a crucial step for the autonomy of stainless steel materials in China, which is of great significance for effectively breaking the long-term monopoly of foreign countries, promoting the quality and efficiency of the steel industry and optimizing and upgrading the structure.

China produces more than 40 billion ballpoint pens a year and is the world's largest producer of ballpoint pens. The steel for the tip is divided into two parts: the nib ball and the ball body. Among them, the materials for ball beads can not only meet domestic demand, but also export a lot. However, the ball seat structure is precise and the processing performance is extremely high. Whether it is production equipment or raw materials, it has been relying on imports for a long time.

As a leading company in the stainless steel industry, TISCO has always been committed to the research and development, production and localization of key materials. As early as the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period, TISCO conducted a large number of basic research experiments on stainless steel materials for the writing, and cooperated with major domestic pen companies and related research institutes to implement the “12th Five-Year” National Science and Technology Support Program. ——“R&D and industrialization of key material preparation technology in the pen industry”. During this period, Taigang obtained a series of key data through a large number of laboratory research and pilot tests, and basically grasped the characteristics of stainless steel for the writing head and the material performance requirements of the pen industry.

At the beginning of 2016, Premier Li Keqiang issued a "question for the ballpoint pen", which caused strong reaction in the industry. Taigang actively responded to the call to further strengthen the research and development strength, speed up the research and development, and launch a new round of research on the application of stainless steel material technology in the production conditions. After five rounds of nearly 100 tests, Taigang has made major breakthroughs in the seven major types of process problems such as the machinability, performance stability and rust resistance of stainless steel materials, and mastered the homogenization of precious metal alloys and inclusions. A number of key technologies, such as harmless treatment, have laid the foundation for the localization of key materials and the realization of mass production. In September 2016, TISCO successfully produced the first batch of 2.3 mm diameter stainless steel wire materials with good machinability. After nearly 1,000 times of the limit test of domestic famous pen enterprise laboratories, the refills produced by Taigang raw materials were realized. The 800-meter continuous line was continuously written under different angles. The test results show that the uniformity of the ball pen and the wear resistance of the pen tip are basically stable, and the product quality is equivalent to that of foreign products. In the next two years, stainless steel materials for pen making will be expected to be fully self-contained.

While accelerating the research and development of new materials, TISCO actively promoted the standardization of the production of stainless steel materials for writing. The technical requirements for easy-cut stainless steel wire are not only high but also have many parameters. Based on a large number of experiments and practices in the early stage, TISCO began to organize the drafting of the industry standard for “cutting stainless steel wire for writing”. Taigang has standardized the classification, grade, mechanical properties and surface quality of the stainless steel materials for the nib, and completed the drafting of the standard. After the improvement of the experts of the National Steel Standards Committee, the company finally developed the first "hand cutting". The stainless steel wire industry standard has filled the gap in the standard of such products in China. Recently, the standard has been approved by the National Steel Standards Committee.

Taigang will be determined to serve the country, promote the spirit of artisans, and be brave in innovation and transcendence. On the existing basis, further optimize the entire line of processes, upgrade the level of key technical quality indicators, and accelerate the stable, reliable and large-scale production of the quality and performance of new stainless steel materials for writing. Fully meet the requirements of pen-making enterprises, realize the complete autonomy of materials as soon as possible, and write the innovation-driven Chinese power with practical actions.
