Objective
Tailored blanks in steel sheets of various thickness or strength are current examples of innovative body-in-white engineering. The partial use of specifically lighter metallic materials provides further opportunities for weight saving. At present aluminium plays a prime role in this regard. Using a combination of laser energy and cold forming overlap shaped transition, joints of steel and aluminium can be produced. Steel/aluminium tailored blanks could also be manufactured with the same technique. To produce parts in real tailored blank format, the project intends to combine low alloyed deep drawing qualities and stainless steels with aluminium alloys for external and internal application in the automotive car bodies. Steel blanks will be used in sheet thickness of 0.8 to 1.2 mm in deep drawing qualities and high strength steels uncoated or galvanised and stainless steels mainly 304-types joint to aluminium blanks in sheet thickness of 1.0 to 1.4 mm in aluminium grades of AA6000 and 5000 series.
