Tranemo-based AP&T Sweden AB (www.aptgroup.com) will highlight its expertise in production solutions that allow the metal-forming industry to manufacture increasingly lighter, safer and more energy-efficient products (Hall 20, Stand 441).

AP&T, which recently delivered its 100th press-hardening line for manufacturing car parts, will provide an insight into the latest sector developments.

One example is sensor-based process control, which enables new ways of customising component features.

The company will also present its proprietary solution for manufacturing complex automotive parts from high-strength aluminium.

This innovation, which can result in significant weight savings, has received both the Altair Enlighten Award and the SIQ Quality Innovation Award.

Complete production solutions for roof drainage systems, heat exchanger plates and air duct parts are also among AP&T’s offering.
