MN Coil Servicecenter is an innovative manufacturer of shaped blanks and as such works constantly on enhancing technologies with a view to increasing the efficiency and sustainability of production processes and improving product quality.
The development of the high-speed cutting (HSC) process is a milestone in the production of aluminum shaped blanks. This highly automated and patented cutting process (EP 2886231 B1) guarantees the cleanest possible surfaces and perfect edge formation. Accordingly, the 100% dust/chip-free HSC process is especially suitable for applications involving the outer skin.
Requiring no tools, our HSC process enables the production of blanks with a width and length of up to 2,000 mm and 4,000 mm, respectively, milled quality edges, no burr and 20% higher residual formability compared to laser cuts.
MN Coil Servicecenter processes 9,000 t of aluminium annually on six HSC lines. This means that our capacity is higher than anywhere else in the world.
