Forging

Forging

It is a hot forming of metal into a required geometry to achieve a desired strength in mechanical properties

Value Added Services:
  • Customised Chemistry Composition
  • Induction Hardening

Ring Rolled Forging

Ring rolled forging is produced from bar stocked, upset, pierced and ring rolled to meet ID and OD requirements.

Ring rolling is using a ring of smaller diameter, rolling into a precise ring of larger diameter and a reduced cross section. This is accomplished by the use of two rollers, one driven and one idle, acting on either side of the ring’s cross section

Advantages of Ring Rolled Forging:

  • The forming of the material will impart the ring with a grain orientation that gives it enhanced strength relative to most applications

Common Application:

  • Casing Connectors;
  • Gears;
  • Spacers;
Shape Forging

This forging process is forming a metal into the required shape by way of force hammering or hydraulic pressing

Open Die Forging

In open-die forging, a hydraulic press or hammer delivers a force to form the workpiece, which is manually or remotely operated, in which case toolings are employed, to shape the metal to the desired geometry

Advantages of Open-Die Forging:
  • Reduced chance of voids
  • Better fatigue resistance
  • Improved microstructure
  • Continuous grain flow
  • Finer grain size
  • Greater strength
Common Application:
  • Casing Heads
  • Spools
  • Flanges
Closed Die Forging

A process where the pre-determined metal input is placed between two engraved die and formed to shape by hammering or compression

Advantages of Closed-Die Forging:
  • Low recurring costs for each part
  • Consistency of the part configuration
  • Good for mass production
Common Application:
  • Valve Bodies
  • Shell
Free Forging

This forging process is forming a metal into the required shape by way of force hammering or hydraulic pressing without any additional tooling

Advantages of Free Forging:
  • Reduces machining and material wastage
Common Application:
  • Stabilizers
  • Block Valves
  • Heavy Wall Tubes
  • Adaptors
