Forming from AMC
Forming encompasses manufacturing processes such as rolling, forging, or drawing, in which components are given their final geometry through plastic deformation. These processes are established in series production and enable high component quality and efficient use of materials.
What is the role of our AMC?
Our AMC semi-finished products are designed to remain formable while retaining the advantages of ceramic reinforcement. Thanks to coordinated matrix alloys and defined reinforcement levels, AMC materials can be successfully used in classic forming processes.
Advantages of AMC
- High rigidity with reduced weight
- Improved wear resistance compared to unreinforced aluminium
- Customizable forming properties through material design
- Good dimensional stability due to reduced thermal expansion
Examples from industry
- Structural components in vehicle and machine construction
- Bars, profiles, and blanks for heavy-duty lightweight construction applications
