smartform® advantages at a glance:
-
Financially attractive: On average 15% more efficient utilization of material by using optimally shaped blanks, optional sheet thickness optimization and use of AHSS
-
High dimensional accuracy: Consistent quality thanks to virtually springback-free forming of high-strength steels independent of batch and tooling
-
High process reliability: Reduced machine downtimes in the press shop through fewer coil changes and reduced maintenance requirements
-
Efficient product start-up: Frontloading in the process development phase significantly reduces tryout work
