Forging steel-solutions for mobility co-designed & provided by PrimoTECS
Our competence is in precision forging, forming & machining centered around high-quality standards. We do have a wide range of forging technologies, vertical integrated machining and heat treatment, as well as on inhouse forging-tool-development and production.
We are counting the following key-processes in our competence: warm and cold forging, heat treatment, as well as machining.
Our key products are used in the engine, transmission and driveline sectors, supporting mobility.
To name our key products, we are producing in our plant within 3 shifts, shafts, rotor-shafts, outer-races, and tripod-housing.
To continue innovation and to keep on track on tendencies, we developped tulips, transmission-shafts, as well as e-mobility-components.
Location of our products in the vehicle of the final customer
Driveline
We develop and supply complex driveline components, such as CV-joints, tripod housings. Thanks to our optimized manufacturing process and the combination of sheet metal and solid design processes, we are now successfully mass-producing joint components, notable for their small size as well as their low weight and noise-optimized design features.
Our expertise of combined hot, warm and cold forming procedures, complemented by our processing and assembly facilities, allows us to be one appreciated suppliers of CV joints.
Constant velocity-joint
Outer race are the constant velocity outer joints of the constant velocity shaft and enable a high bending angle during torque transmission to the wheel hub.
Material used is induction hardening steel and process used is mainly warm forging combined with cold calibration to achieve a near-to-shape ball tracks geometry and in few cases an additional hirth gear for the newest.
Tripod housings
Tripod housing is a type of joint making the liaison between the gear box and the constant velocity shaft. It works within a less regular range than many other types of joints but allows axial movement that enables length compensation.
Material is induction hardening steel and are produced by warm forging with cold calibrated raceways ready for hardening. The inner geometry is optimized in codesign with the customer in such a way that hard machining is not necessary.
Engine
For the engine-segment, we develop and supply components, such as connecting rods and specifically for the e-mobility rotor-shafts.
Cam Pulley
The cam pulley is a part of the timing system in an engine used to control the rate of rotation of the camshaft, component that controls the poppet valves responsible for air intake and exhaust in the cylinders. The cam pulley articulates with the timing chain to rotate the camshaft in synchronicity with the crankshaft. Hot forging followed by isoterm annealing and high precision turning with tight tolerances.
E-Mobility
Original-equiment-manufacturer are confronted to new challenges for e-mobility. We are striving to support best with new solutions. Solutions for power transmission within electric vehicles are also included in our scope of applications. Our technologies allow us to build rotor shafts, as well as other key components such as input shafts and hubs for hybrid modules.
Rotor-Shaft
The rotor-shaft of electric motor, designed on the basis of static and dynamic loadings, has to transmit the high torque of the electric motor in a precise and stable way. This is an increasing new product group that we are developing with our customers. They can be produced by warm or cold forging, or a combination of these two processes, followed by heat treatment on request.
Transmission
We are producing gears, input- and output shafts for manual and Dual-Clutch-Transmissions.
Inputshaft gearbox engine side
These shafts cover a large range of input shafts for manual gear boxes as well as for Dual-Clutch-Transmission (DCT). They receive directly the engine torque from the clutch and transmit it through various gears to the output shaft. Cold forging followed by a heat treatment (mostly isoterm annealing) to achieve the definitive metallurgical characteristics.
In few cases, undercut can be obtained directly by forging or by assembling two parts by friction welding. Warm forging can be used in case of shafts with large flange like in DCT.
Output shaft gearbox differential side
These shafts cover a large range of output shafts for manual gear boxes as well as for Dual-Clutch-Transmission (DCT). They receive the transmission torque coming from the inputshaft through various gear and transmit the final demultiplied torque to the crown of the differential case.
Cold forging followed by a heat treatment (mostly isoterm annealing) to achieve the definitive metallurgical characteristics. Warm forging can be used in case of shafts with large flange like in DCT.
