The automotive product range includes soft magnetic materials, high-performance case-hardening steels as well as high-speed steels and tool steels for hot working. BÖHLER produces and supplies highly functional materials, mainly for the highly stressed transmission sector and for injection components, in compliance with high standards of quality and product safety. L’INNOVATION EST LE MOTEUR DE L’INDUSTRIE AUTOMOBILE L’efficacité et l’innovation sont les moteurs de l’industrie automobile. Dans la concurrence constante pour les parts de marché, seuls ceux qui ouvrent la voie avec des idées tournées vers l’avenir et qui contribuent activement à façonner le progrès technologique survivront à long terme. Since decades, we count among our customers the leading automobile manufacturers and their suppliers. We develop and produce for them highly functional materials – especially for the powertrain and the engine, which are subjected to high stresses, as well as for fuel injection components – naturally in high quality and according to high standards of product safety and the strictest precautions in terms of quality assurance. Our customers order the products according to the required specifications and standards, we produce, inspect and deliver the perfect materials exactly according to their requirements, in the desired composition and dimensions, with the desired properties. The versatile portfolio of automotive products leaves nothing to be desired for our customers and partners, including special soft magnetic materials, high-performance case-hardening steels up to HSS and hot-work tool steels. The materials intended for the automotive industry must meet particular requirements, including – Mechanical strength and toughness at temperatures below -100°C up to approximately 700°C – Fatigue resistance – Special physical properties (e.g. magnetism) – machinability – wear resistance
