A simple connection between tubes. Stamped. Nothing special, ones presume, but the professionals know it is very special.

As it needs almost complete rectangular sides it seemed necessary to mill this part. A good solution but not at 50.000 pieces a year. The costs are much too high. Our customer received a tip: “Why don’t you ask NGF, they are very good in finding solutions” So the question was put to us.’

To be honest, it was not an easy question. It took a lot of thinking and testing. But in the end we solved it. One needs to bring the whole profile at yield stress level. Once this is achieved, the cutting can take place. To achieve this and to create a reliable production method requires complete understanding of the process. In stamping, NGF is the best.

NGF now produces thousands of these parts at a fraction of the costs of milling.
