Engineering is the key

For many years now, aluminium materials have been becoming more and more prevalent in many industries. This trend continues unabated. While light-weight construction and corresponding materials and structures have always been an important aspect of aerospace, the use of aluminium to reduce weight in automobile manufacturing has increased steadily, and has really taken off now due to electromobility. MAPAL is a leading technology partner for machining aluminium components thanks to its many years of experience designing, producing and applying tools for aluminium machining and offers a tailor-made solution for every challenge.
