perform® HD steels for optimum component-related material selection
Due to their good processing behavior, hot-rolled microalloyed steels have proven their worth in automotive construction – especially in the areas of chassis and seats. The new high-ductility (HD) grades from thyssenkrupp Steel offer convincing features, with a uniform property profile tailored to the intended use at the same time as an increased forming potential. "The new micro-alloyed HD steels are characterized by a significantly narrower range of mechanical properties compared to the standard and have an increased elongation after fracture," says product manager Arne Schreiber. "With the higher-strength grades, the component weight can additionally be reduced. perform® HD steels are ideally suited for seat components such as cushion side members and seat rails or in the axle or wheel suspension area."
precidur® – that little bit extra for complex components
precidur® is used in almost all branches of industry. Particularly in the case of safety-relevant components, functional and design aspects are playing an increasing role alongside reliability – which demands the highest forming capacity of the basic material. Hot-rolled fine-grained steels such as precidur® HSM 380 HD and precidur® HSM 420 HD are particularly suitable for this purpose. They are characterized by symmetrical strip profiles and the rolled mill edge. Compared to proven microalloyed fine-grain structural steels, they make increased forming potential possible with the same strength.
The advantages of microalloyed perform® HD steels at a glance:
· Improved cold formability for complex component geometries
· Guaranteed narrower range of mechanical parameters compared to VDA 239-100 and DIN EN 10149-2 standards
· Significantly increased elongation after fracture
· Lightweight potential through sheet thickness reduction
· Narrowest thickness tolerances for hot-rolled wide strip
· Excellent surface quality
· Reduction of production costs in the stamping shop thanks to application-specific property profile
thyssenkrupp is looking forward to face-to-face encounters and stimulating industry discussions at EuroBLECH 2022. Visit the booth from 25 to 28 October 2022 in Hall 17, booth E33.
