Abstract: A hot forming line for producing hot formed and press hardened steel sheet products, in particular motor vehicle parts includes a heating device and a forming device, wherein the heating device has a temperature treatment station with an upper tool and a lower tool and the temperature treatment station has a temperature source for heating, wherein exchangeable temperature treatment plates are arrangeable on the upper and/or the lower tool and the temperature source is constructed as inductor, and the temperature treatment plates can be heated by the inductor.

Abstract: A formed component of an automobile and a method for its manufacture are disclosed. The formed component has a base body made of a metal sheet and a smaller, locally arranged reinforcement sheet. The gap between the base body and the reinforcement sheet is sealed in certain areas with a sealing mass made of enamel on an alkali-vanadium-silicate basis. The sealing mass may be applied by screen printing. The sealing mass is dried on the base sheet and/or on the reinforcement sheet, whereafter the reinforcement sheet is attached by welding in a region that is not covered by the sealing mass. The composite sheet formed from the base sheet and the reinforcement sheet is then heated to a forming temperature and hot-formed in a forming tool to the formed component and at least partially hardened.
