Springback Minimization

Car manufacturers today aim to produce lighter cars which meet even more stringent safety requirements. In order to achieve this, high and ultra-high strength steels as well as aluminum are often used in place of conventional deep-drawn steel. Using these advanced materials, however, poses additional challenges as the parts produced are affected by springback. Since springback alters the final form of a part, minimizing springback is important for efficient production which meets quality standards.

The latest technological achievements provided by AutoForm software address the challenges of springback. With our software, springback can be minimized since it allows you to calculate the effects after each forming or cutting operation and to take the clamping order into consideration as well. Less springback is a precondition for later successful springback compensation.
