Aluminum especially extrusions of the 6xxx series has considerable potential to make cars lighter and thus more economical. TRIMET ALUMINIUM AG has been supplying aluminum and services for the aluminum industry since 1988. TRIMET Essen produces aluminum billets for high performance profiles especially in automotive applications since 1994. Over time requirements have been changed to higher strength for profiles with lower wall thickness including better energy absorbing behavior. Therefore TRIMET and Honsel started an innovative alloy and process development to give these profiles considerably greater strength and better folding behavior under load compared to other alloys available. Extrusions made out of this new alloy, (R)-52, fulfill the highest demands of the OEMs. This paper describes the most important aspects of the production chain of aluminum for spaceframe application from the alloy development to the casting process and at least to test results of the final product.
