In the manufacture of closed sleeves using stamping processes, material use is a significant cost factor. In some cases, only 10% of the strip material would be able to be used.
KERN-LIEBERS pursues a material-saving approach in which flat strip is bent into a sleeve. After separation, the sleeve can be closed using a welding process (laser welding or resistance welding).
For the subsequent processing that then takes place, the full range of KERN-LIEBERS production technology, including all precision machining and heat treatment processes, is available to finish the parts.
