Ready-to-install parts straight from the press

Combination of precision blanking and sheet metal forging reduces number of process steps as well as material and energy costs
 Automotive components are becoming increasingly complex: they are now expected to fulfil several functions at once in order to save weight. Until recently, such sophisticated parts had to be manufactured in several intermediate steps, pushing the possibilities of conventional forming processes to their limits. One possible solution is the combination of precision blanking and forging in a single die.
“At present, components which have different material thicknesses in different areas are generally produced by joining several individual components,” explains Schuler Managing Director Jochen Frueh, who heads the company’s Industry division. “Long process chains to produce these components and additional steps for storing, separating and loading – as well as the necessary joining processes – all result in high part costs.”
In addition, surfaces often have to be reworked, e.g. to remove the burr. Shortening process chains including all press operations for producing components in a single press therefore offers a huge potential for savings.
