- Summary:
- Light-weight solutions for stamped steel components that exhibit the same or similar appearance properties for purposes of authentic feel and perception to customers will play a critical role as the goal of reaching maximum fuel efficiency for large vehicles continues. This paper outlines the potential uses for laminated steel or "MSC Smart Steel®" in large stamped steel bumpers that would normally be stamped with thick sheet metal in order to meet vehicle level functional objectives. The paper presents the investigation of the one for one drop in capabilities of MSC Smart Steel® material to existing stamping dies, special processing considerations while manufacturing, vehicle level performance comparisons, and class "A" coating options and process needs. Most of all, it will highlight the significant vehicle weight saving benefits and opportunities as compared to current production stamped steel bumpers
