Component i.e. body part, manufacturing method for motor vehicle, involves preforming and/or pre-positioning semi-finished part before mechanical contact of semi-finished part with pressing element

摘要

The method involves three-dimensional shaping of a semi-finished part (11) by pressing of pressing elements (80) with complementary profile of a pressing tool (70). The semi-finished part is preformed and/or pre-positioned before the mechanical contact of the semi-finished part with the pressing element so that the semi-finished part is attached to the larger surface during contacting of the pressing elements with the larger surface when the semi-finished part lies in a flat state during contacting the pressing elements. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a folding frame for fixing a semi-finished part in a plane of a frame (2) a press tool with press elements for introducing forming forces in a semi-finished product.
