The open frame construction, which characterizes
skeletonized metal wire shapes, has been used to advantage in designing
hybrid sheet metal wire products type chassis. Improved air
circulation to dissipate heat; open visibility for quick inspection,
testing and service reduced weight and excellent rigidity are
several of the advantage gained when doing this type of design. When
a hybrid chassis is made of steel wire its cost is significantly
less than its sheet metal counterpart because structural material
is used only where it is needed and is economically and effectively
joined by electric resistance welding.
The selection of the proper material classification,
tolerances, surface finish, wire size, bend radii and the “finishing
of wire products” is of utmost importance prior to starting
a new sheet metal wire design.
