Tailor Welded Products:Save weight, reduce cost, improve material utilization and consolidate parts.
Tailor Welded Blanks (TWB) are made from individual sheets of steel of different thickness, strength and coating which are joined together by laser welding. This process allows for the right properties in the right place.
Tailor Welded Coils (TWC) are a unique product for lightweight construction. Tailor welded coils brings the proven advantages of tailor welded blanks to coil fed operations.
Hot Formed Tailored Blanks (HFTB) provide lighter weight and improved part performance. New HotWire processing can eliminate the need for ablation in certain applications whencombining press-hardenable boron grades or mixed grades of varying thickness.
Aluminum Tailored Blanks (AITB) are processed using friction stir welding technology. Friction stir offers the widest range of formable welded properties for all automotive aluminum alloys.
