Shearing the part edges of laser-welded blanks (LWBs) made of steel sheet metal is a challenging and precise process. Recently, EWI conducted studies applying high-speed shearing in the fabrication of steel LWBs with promising results. This work is described in Application of High-speed Shearing for Fabricating Laser-welded Blanks with AHSS and GEN3 Steel, by EWI...
