Abstract

The use of new materials including steel HSLA-High Strength Low Alloy by the automotive industry including manufacturers of semitrailers requires the use of efficient cutting techniques. Cutting sheets of different thickness is a big challenge for manufacturing companies. Mechanical cutting works on thin sheets made of structural steel. For thicker sheets are currently used different technologies of oxygen cutting, plasma, laser and water jet cutting. The article presents the results of the impact of cutting technology applied in the Wielton SA the change in hardness of steel cutting zone Hardox 400 and 450.

Keywords: Cutting, HSLA steels, hardness
