Fine Blanking
Fine blanking technology was initially used in the watch and clock industry but today its usage is commonly found in the automotive industry.
In a car, fine blanking is employed to guarantee that critical parts which cannot go wrong – such as the safety belt, the brake system or the airbag – are in working tiptop condition. Consequently, fine blanking plays a major role in the safety of our daily lives.
