Which Cars Use the Most Hot-Formed Steel?
1 Answers
Here are the cars that use the most hot-formed steel: Volvo S60, Audi A6L, Mazda Atenza, Ford Mondeo, Citroën C5, etc. Below is an introduction to hot-formed steel: 1. Function: Hot-formed steel is produced by heating high-strength steel to 950°C and then stamping it once, followed by rapid cooling, which significantly enhances the strength of the steel plate. The yield strength can reach as high as 1000Mpa, capable of withstanding over 10 tons of pressure per square centimeter. Using this material in car bodies improves load-bearing capacity by 30% with almost no significant increase in weight. 2. Advantages: Hot-formed steel plates offer excellent material forming accuracy, eliminating the effects of material rebound, and enabling the creation of complex shapes. Due to the special properties of hot-formed steel plates and their formation after heating, complex shapes that would require multiple steps in ordinary cold stamping can be completed in a single step.
