The challenge in the automobile industry is to build ‘Low cost & safe vehicles’
. How to achieve this? Strength and lightweight construction is achieved by means of press hardening of boron-alloyed steel (hot stamping).
ABB offers automation solutions for loading and picking the part after thermoforming and hardening.
Benefits - Hot Stamping
- Strength
- Hardness/Toughness
- Dimensional Accuracy
