Forging — High-Strength Components for Demanding Industrial Applications
We offer forged metal components with very high strength, long service life and excellent mechanical performance. Forging is an ideal manufacturing method for components subjected to high loads, wear and dynamic forces.
The method is widely used in the automotive, energy, mining, mechanical engineering and heavy industry sectors where demands on material strength and operational reliability are very high.
What is forging?
Forging is a manufacturing process in which heated metal is shaped by pressure or impact in tooling. The material’s grain structure follows the shape of the component, resulting in very high strength and toughness compared to cast or machined parts.
Forged components therefore offer superior mechanical performance and long service life in demanding applications.
Advantages of forging
- Very high strength and wear resistance
- Optimal grain flow in the material
- High resistance to fatigue
- Excellent operational reliability
- Long service life in harsh environments
