Abstract:In metal forming a trend is observed towards increasing the performance of products by means of functional integration. One approach being pursued is the integration of electronic components. Multifunctional profiles with electrical conductors can transmit data and energy in addition to the mechanical function. They can be produced efficiently by roll forming. During the roll forming of multifunctional profiles wrinkles and cracks in the conductors may occur in the area of the contact of the rollers due to the… Show more
