OREANDA-NEWS. October 11, 2011. Tailored bland welding on steel of different specification can help to reduce the production cost of skeleton of auto seat. Good news came out from Baosteel Arcellor Tailor Metal Co., Ltd that with the back up from units such as technical institute of Baosteel, etc, steel material for skeleton of auto seat was made successfully by using tailored bland welding technology instead of worldwide commonly used electric-arc welding, reported the press-centre of Baosteel.  

This can help clients in downstream reduce production procedure, quantity of mold and cost sharply and facilitate weight reduction of auto and energy saving and emission reduction, is one initiative patent in the industry.  
 
Skeleton of auto seat is one of the vital parts in auto manufacturing and safety property enhancement. In a long period, skeleton of auto seat used by auto manufacturer in and out of china was made by welding two parts together through electric-arc welding after punching many times which might cause high manufacturing cost, complicated production procedures and usage of too many molds etc.

As the biggest manufacturer of tailored bland welding company, Baosteel Arcellor imported tailored bland welding technology to process tailored bland welding material for auto manufacturer. Meanwhile it traced the development of auto industry closely and expanded the market and survival space of the company through gathering of technology. The company made massive research on the current situation of manufacturing of skeleton of auto seat by making deep discussion with the clients and started the research of making such kind of parts via tailored bland welding technology under the backup of technical institute of Baosteel and with the advantage of the technology and equipment it possessed.

After repeated studies and tests, Baosteel Arcellor decided to replace the original electric-arc technology by tailored bland welding technology, make laser welding first and then make complete punching and forming to promote welding strength massively. Taking the skeleton of auto seat from some auto company as example, procedure reduced from 24 to 10, forming mold form 19 to 7 and complete product cost reduced by 20%.

As introduced by some experts, the application of tailored bland laser welding on skeleton of auto seat can enhance the strength and safety of skeleton of auto seat and future of marketing is bright. By now, several worldwide famous auto seat manufacturers have extended the will of cooperating with Baosteel. Forming of patent technology is also an indication of new expansion of application of tailored bland welding technology of Baosteel.
