If necessary, corresponding recesses are punched or cut out of the sheet metal in order to connect these sheets to other components. Frequently, a welding of the sheet metal components with other components is required. As stated, these sheets are used in the automotive industry, in particular as sound-absorbing insulation packages or heat shields for vehicles. Usually, flat or sheet materials are passed through an embossing roll pair to produce such sheets to achieve the desired sheet structure. Such structuring / embossing can be nap, wave or rhombic.
  • these sheets When used as sound-absorbing insulation packages or heat shields, such as in automotive or automotive, these sheets are used as stacks or as composites in conjunction with other insulation materials, such as mineral insulating or insulating materials or those based on steel fiber. These composites allow a good heat dissipation with simultaneous sound absorption.
  • components have been developed from individual elements, which in particular also comprise different materials, such as plastics and metals.
