World Auto Steel presents case studies of automotive parts applications where MS steels have replaced PHS grades for certain shaped-parts, lowering energy costs and improving cycle times. As the study points out, cold forming of martensitic steels is not limited to simpler shapes with gentle curvature. The example is a cold-stamped outer center pillar with a tailor-welded blank containing both CR1200Y1470T-MS and CR320Y590T-DP sections.
