Very Strong Steel for Lightweight Automotive Parts
Original language description
The constant evolution of automotive brings a demand for components of ever higher quality, complex shape and excellent mechanical properties, at reduced operation costs and with improved reliability in service. Such demand can be met by processing high-strength low-alloyed steels using novel heat treatment methods. One of such methods is the quenching and partitioning (Q&P) process which can lead to high strengths of about 2000 MPa at elongation levels of more than 10%. The Q&P process can be combinedwith unconventional procedures for making complex-shaped parts to manufacture lightweight components with excellent mechanical properties and intricate shape. The purpose of the experimental programme was to employ a production chain for processing hollow thin-walled stock. Using step-by-step optimization, commercially usable products were obtained. Most of the parts in automotive are joined by welding. A common concern is that welding is not at all suitable as the joining technique for
