Custom forged parts
Custom forged parts are components specifically manufactured through the forging process to meet unique requirements for specific applications. Forging is a manufacturing technique that typically involves heating the metal to high temperatures and then applying force using hammers, presses, or molds to shape the material.
Custom forged parts offer several advantages compared to other manufacturing methods. The metal can be precisely shaped, and the flow of its grain can be controlled, resulting in parts that are highly ductile, tough, and resistant to fatigue, making them ideal for applications where reliability and performance are critical.
Forging is also a viable method for producing parts that are too large to be manufactured through other means.
Due to the ease of combining forging processes with machining, the waste is minimized compared to parts manufactured through subtractive machining, and the scrap rate is close to zero. Therefore, the shape and tolerance requirements are usually only limited by the creative skills of the designers and manufacturers. Forging can be a highly cost-effective manufacturing method.
Forging is an excellent method for producing large, unique, or limited-production parts.
We offer the following forging techniques:
Open-die forging: Also known as smith forging, open-die forging involves deforming the metal between flat dies or anvils. Open-die forging is commonly used for large, custom-shaped components such as shafts, blocks, and discs.
Closed-die forging: Also called impression-die forging, closed-die forging involves shaping the metal between two or more dies that contain the desired shape. Closed-die forging is often used for producing smaller, more complex components such as gears, fittings, and connecting rods.
Ring rolling: Ring rolling is a specialized forging method used to produce seamless rings. It is commonly employed in the production of bearing races, flanges, and seamless rolled rings for various industries.
Upset forging: Upset forging is used to increase the cross-sectional area of a metal part. It involves compressing the end of a metal bar to create a larger diameter section. Upset forging is often employed in the production of bolts, rivets, and other fasteners.
