Abstract: A transport system, which is designed in particular for a dryer for drying workpieces, such as vehicle bodies, and which has a plurality of transport carts. The transport carts can be moved on a rail system in a transport direction. Workpieces can be transported by means of the transport carts. Each transport cart has a transport cart chassis. The transport cart has a fastening device, which is designed to establish a connection between the transport cart and a workpiece carrier in order to transport the workpiece carrier by means of the transport cart. The fastening device has thermal insulation, which impedes heat transfer between a workpiece carrier and the transport cart.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a bodywork component of a motor vehicle that has first been shaped and is then thermally surface-treated, said method comprising iterative simulated steps with variable geometric data of tools that are used in the shaping process. According to the invention, a continuous check verifies whether the expected geometric data of the component lies within the permitted tolerance range of the nominal geometric data of the component. If this is not the case, the geometric data and the generation of corrected tool geometric data is modified. This takes place in two stages, the first stage for the shaping steps and the subsequent stage for the process steps of the thermal surface treatment.
