closed-die-forgings

Open die forging, wherein the die only comes in contact with part of the workpiece at a time, is distinct from closed die forging. The latter has high initial costs for establishing fool-proof processes and tools, but it is the most cost-effective forging technique for bulk production. The reason is that recurrent expenses for each […]

Ever wondered how open die and closed die forging began? The art of forging emerged around 4,000 B.C. – some even say that it began way before this time. Metals like iron and bronze were forged to produce hand tools and other weapons for defense. However, the earliest recorded metal forged by early generations was […]

Closed die forging uses a controlled procedure with a culmination of alloys and heated metals to create the desired shape. Without an appropriate forging die lubricant, effective and economical closed die forging is unattainable. To know more about the technical specifications of this type of forging, please read on. Mechanical Characteristics of Closed Die Forging […]
