Hot forming

 

To comply with the requirements of the AD-2000 regulations, certain components must be hot formed. For this reason, we have our own annealing furnace on which we can pre-anneal blanks with a maximum thickness of 20mm and a maximum width of 400mm at up to 1050°C and then process the pre-annealed blanks directly in our presses.
