Toolmaking and the press plant provide the basis for successful and efficient car body manufacturing. And apart from the permanent requests for higher efficiency and quality, which constantly require a critical reviewing of all press plant processes, forming operations today are faced with large challenges, when it comes to future car models and the new, advanced lightweight materials to be used in them.

This is why the annual Automotive Circle International conference "Forming in Car Body Engineering" again gathers the globally leading network of expert automotive engineers in Bad Nauheim, offering the unique opportunity to discuss and define the state-of-the-art as well as the future of the press plant facing shifting requirements.

Specific focus topics, which the conference addresses in particular:
  • Processing of advanced high to ultra-high strength steel sheets as well as modern light metal materials
  • Practical use of advanced forming processes
  • Progress in the rationalisation of volume series presses and in toolmaking
  • Improved flexibility and cost optimisation in small series production
  • Advances in the virtual product development process / digital press plant
  • More efficient quality assurance in large and small volume series production
Featuring progress reports of international OEM as well as important system suppliers and research institutes, "Forming in Car Body Engineering 2009" again offers the leading international forum of experts, enabling an engineering-oriented high-level exchange of ideas on latest forming and toolmaking technologies and strategies.

The conference addresses:
Automotive engineers responsible for car body forming or toolmaking processes, in pre-development, development and production, from European OEM and beyond, as well as their system suppliers and engineering service providers.

With progress reports from the following OEM:
  • BMW AG
  • Honda Engineering Co. Ltd.
  • Volkswagen AG
  • Volvo Car Corporation
Exclusive market poll
With a panoply of experienced car body engineers drawn from international OEMs, development service providers, system suppliers and research institutes, the auditorium of the conference "Forming in Car Body Engineering" represents a high level of expertise and market knowledge.
An anonymous online poll of all conference participants will thus aim to elucidate the considered opinion of this body of experts on press plant and toolmaking issues in car body engineering. The results of the poll will be announced at the beginning of the conference and made available exclusively to the conference participants.

NEW
Interaktive Focus Workshops
As an interactive benefit, the conference includes two intensive 90-minute Focus Workshops, dedicated to specific current issues in toolmaking and pressline processes. Choose the workshop that suits your individual interests best and bring up your aspects for discussion. Positive side effect: The focus workshops will effectively bring you together with other peers, maximising your networking possibilities.
