Henkel's BONDERITE PULS Process enabling efficient and sustainable cold forming

Cold forming - often known as cold roll forming - is a forging technique used to shape metal materials at near room temperature to retain or enhance the tensile strength and hardness of the material, while still allowing high levels of manipulation.

While heavily used in automotive component processing, traditional cold forming can result in high energy consumption and phosphate sludge generation. Additionally, the process is lengthy, involving up to 10 individual steps.

Henkel’s BONDERITE PULS* Process uses a polymer-based cold forming lubricant, which simplifies the process to 3 steps, while enabling benefits related to energy savings, waste reduction and water use.
