Balancing Initial Investment and Long-Term Benefits in Display Micro Screws

2026,07,28

Material costs account for 30%-50% of the total cost of an Display Micro Screws. Selection must balance performance and economy:

CM2*10D=4.0 SUS 304 Cross Large Flat Head CM Type W03.150 screws

1. Select materials based on demand: For small-batch production, prioritize easily machinable and low-cost materials (such as 45 steel and Cr12MoV); for large-batch production, choose high-wear-resistant materials (such as SKD11 and DC53) to extend lifespan and reduce unit cost. For example, Display Micro Screws made with DC53 have a 2-3 times longer lifespan than those made with Cr12MoV, although the unit price is 30% higher, the long-term cost is lower.

2. Focus on machinability: Choose materials with good cutting performance (such as pre-hardened steel) to reduce tool wear and machining time. Pre-hardened steel requires no subsequent heat treatment and can be directly machined, saving heat treatment costs and deformation risks.

3. Recycling: For scrapped Display Micro Screws, undamaged components (such as guide pillars) can be disassembled and reused or recycled, reducing material waste.
