Automotive - innovative processes for innovative components
Saving energy, increasing comfort - two key elements for car design. For the parts to be straightened, these aspects present the following challenges:
- The parts are lighter and more delicate,
- Other materials are used, e.g. aluminum instead of steel,
- The parts are hollow and thin-walled, thus challenging for the straightening process,
- New parts are straightened due to new manufacturing methods, e.g. structured aluminum parts,
- Motor and gear shafts that transmit torque require excellent run-out precision, in gears for instance.
MAE has embraced these challenges and offers efficient solutions...
… for shafts, hollow shafts, pipes and complex structural parts (cast iron),
… with extreme accuracy: TRILOS, a high-resolution laser system for measuring gears.
