Applications for success
processing advanced high strength steels
Lightweighting strategies have resulted in an increasing use of advanced high strength steels (AHSS), which are challenging stampers during the straightening process prior to feeding the press. To overcome this issue, COE has developed a series of straighteners specifically meant to effectively address both the coil set and crossbow issues required to achieve the flatness required to process high strength, high yield materials, all backed by FEA and software utilities that prove out the performance capabilities. These straighteners are also capable of processing a wider range of materials — both thick and thin — than conventional equipment. Nahanni is an excellent example of success in AHSS processing.

COE Brings Nahanni New OpportunitiesParts manufactured from Advanced High Strength Steel (AHSS) offer numerous performance benefits. Yet, the processing of these higher yield materials requires higher loads to achieve the necessary material flatness. This can take a toll on feed lines and tooling if you don’t have the right equipment. COE’s new SpaceMaster Series 4 compact coil line helped Nahanni Steel Products overcome these issues to improve safety, quality, consistency and productivity — and attract new customers. You too can benefit from SpaceMaster’s ability to process high yield materials at speeds up to 70 SPM within 23-ft. of floorspace.
