T3 profiling technology - : a precondition for the increased use of hollow steel sections in motor vehicles

Demand for more environmentally compatible vehicles is forcing manufacturers to build extremely light automobiles, in which steel plays a dominant role because of its excellent properties. Due to their high geometrical moment of inertia, new, intelligently designed hollow section components are substantially increasing the potential of lightweight construction. Because of its unique plant and process engineering, T 3 profiling technology can be used to produce such components particularly inexpensively. Additional synergy effects are generated by giving components previously unattainable shapes and functionalities.
