The Graebener Group is a leader in the development of hot
stamping equipment and process for automotive and
non-automotive applications.
In order to manufacture extremely solid reinforcing
parts, the unprocessed blanks are heated to approx. 950°C,
formed in a tool of a special press connected to a cooling system,
and then cooled in a controlled way resulting in superior final material
properties.
