Frequently asked questions

Why Are Pressings Used in the Manufacture of Automotive Body Parts?

With a finalised design, press machines can produce stampings quickly and smoothly, helping assembly lines run quickly. Pressings are also made from sturdy materials so they help protect the car from weathering, damage, and exposure of internal parts.

Springs have many purposes in a car, including: 

  • Shock absorption 
  • Supporting vehicle weight 
  • Keeping the car at a consistent and stable height 

Different forms of coil springs are typically the most used in cars today. This includes compression springs, which are frequently found in vehicle suspension systems.

Automotive applications need strong metals, but this will often depend on the part of the vehicle and the purpose it serves. Whilst the car’s main frame, body and engine may use steel springs and pressings, some areas may need a more lightweight material like aluminium.

We offer a wide range of surface treatments to improve corrosion resistance, wear protection and aesthetic appeal, depending on the component’s function and location within the vehicle. This includes coating, galvanising, painting and plating.
