Light construction alliance

Cooperation between automotive supplier ISE Automotive GmbH and forming specialist HEATform GmbH

The strategic cooperation between ISE Automotive GmbH and HEATform GmbH promises completely new possibilities in the design and production of formed parts for automotive construction. The innovative forming technology of HEATform for hollow components enables high forming levels and complex forms of high-strength aluminium and steel alloys. This allows new possibilities for the design, function, geometry and therefore also the weight of structural components. In combination with the know-how and the very latest production methods of ISE Automotive, this allows new approaches for the economic production of light and strong structural components such as A/B-columns, cross-members and side-members of vehicles. The cooperation was initiated on 1st August 2010.
