The invention relates to a method for producing a component, said method comprising: preforming a workpiece to a preformed component having a base region, a side-plate region, and optionally a flange region, such that the preformed component has a material surplus for the side-plate region and/or the base region and/or optionally the flange region; and calibrating the preformed component to an at least in regions finally formed component having a base region, a side-plate region, and optionally a flange region; wherein the base region of the preformed component has substantially the geometry and/or the local cross sections of the base region of the at least in regions finally formed component. The invention moreover relates to a device for producing a component, in particular for carrying out the method.

Method and device for producing components having an adjusted bottom reagion

The present invention relates to a method for producing a dimensionally stable sheet metal component, wherein the method includes preforming a metal sheet into a sheet metal preform comprising at least one base region, a frame region, a transitional region between the base region and the frame region, optionally a flange region and a transitional region between the frame region and the flange region, wherein at least one of the regions comprises excess material at least in portions. The sheet metal preform is cut at least in portions to form a cut sheet metal preform with a sheet metal preform The sheet metal preform is one of swagged and calibrated which has been cut at least in portions to form a substantially finished formed sheet metal component.

Method for producing sheet metal components and device therefor

A battery housing for a vehicle battery includes side walls which laterally delimit an interior of the battery housing, with a mounting frame running externally around the side walls for mounting the battery housing on a chassis of an electric vehicle, and with a floor structural element delimiting the interior of the battery housing at the bottom, wherein a first reinforcing profile for reinforcing the floor structural element is arranged on said floor structural element, and/or a second reinforcing profile for reinforcing the mounting frame is arranged on said mounting frame.

Battery housing for a vehicle battery and chassis for an electric vehicle

A method for producing dimensionally highly accurate sheet-metal components is provided. A blank is formed to a preformed part, wherein the preformed part in the cross section at least in regions has an excess developed length. The preformed part is calibrated in regions to a calibrated part while at least in regions using the excess developed length of the cross section of the preformed part, wherein the preformed edges of the preformed part during the calibrating are at least in regions disposed so as to be free of any form-fit. The calibrated part is trimmed at least in regions after the calibrating, in order for the sheet-metal component () to be produced. A device for producing dimensionally highly accurate sheet-metal components is moreover described.

Method and device for producing sheet-metal components

A method for producing a formed component is disclosed. The method includes: preforming a workpiece to a preformed component having a base region, a wall region, and optionally a flange region, wherein a material quantity adaptation is set in the preformed component; and calibrating the preformed component to a finally formed component, at least in regions, having a base region, a wall region, and optionally a flange region, wherein compressing of the preformed component is performed at least in regions during the calibrating. The method provides a formed component wherein the dimensional accuracy is improved and, in particular, any spreading of the walls of U-shaped components or part-portions can be influenced in a targeted manner, so as to further improve the dimensional accuracy of the formed component. The material quantity adaptation is set by way of a base-specific material quantity adaptation, a wall-specific material quantity adaptation, a radii-specific material quantity adaptation, and/or optionally a flange-specific material quantity adaptation. A formed component made by the method is also disclosed.

Method for producing a formed component having a dimensionally accurate wall region

A battery housing for receiving battery elements, in particular for a vehicle, includes a case formed by a frame including one or more profiles and at least one first floor. The case provides an interior region for the battery elements. A second floor is positioned at a distance below the first floor and defines a space with the first floor. A cover covers the case.

Battery housing

The present invention concerns a method for production of a supporting member with an at least partially closed cross-section, having at least a first metal shell and a second metal shell which are connected together at least in portions in the longitudinal direction. The method includes a provision of at least a first and a second metal blank. At least a first and a second metal shell are produced from the respective first and second metal blanks. The first and second metal shells each have at least one floor with two protruding uprights spaced apart from each other and integrally connected to the floor. The first and second metal shells are positioned such that the uprights of the metal shells come into overlapping contact.

Method for production of a supporting member and a ladder frame or box frame

A frame unit for a two-wheeled vehicle may comprise a main frame. The main frame may be formed by a first partial shell and a second partial shell that is joined to the first partial shell. The first partial shell and the second partial shell may be produced from a material comprising steel. The main frame may further comprise an upper tube, a lower tube, a seat tube, and/or a head tube. A rear section may be joined to the main frame and may include a chain stay and/or a seat stay. Further, each of the first and second partial shells may form a lateral half of the main frame, and the first and second partial shells may have a C-shaped cross section. The frame unit avoids the disadvantages of the prior art and offers a high degree of design freedom.
