Abstract

Sheet metal forming is one in all the foremost important production processes in car manufacturing; therefore its developments are significantly determined by the demands of the automotive industry. Recent trends in car production are also characterized by applying lightweight principles. Its main priority is to fulfil both the customers’ demands and also the increased legal requirements. Applying high strength steels could also be thought to be one in all the potential possibilities. Applying high strength steels have a positive response for several of the requirements: increasing the strength may result in the appliance of thinner sheets leading to significant mass reduction. Mass reduction ends up in lower consumption and increased environmental protection. Increasing strength often leads to a decrease in formability. In this paper, an outline of recent material developments within the automotive industry concerning the employment of recent generation advanced high strength steels are going to be given.
