When it comes to forging, there are several types. One of the most used types of forging is closed die forging. There are not only a lot of benefits to this kind of forging, but it can produce a wide variety of parts too. The Closed Die Forging Process The process begins when two dies […]

When it comes to creating metal parts, there are a wide variety of processes to choose from. There is sand casting, investment casting, centrifugal casting, heat resistant casting, rolled ring forging, open die forging, and closed die forging, just to name a few. Deciding on which metalworking process is right for your specific requirements can […]

Over the years, the forging industry has tremendously evolved. The use of various techniques and processes gave rise to applications in industries such as construction, agricultural, automotive, machinery, and so much more. Furthermore, the two most popular forms of forging are open die forging and closed die forging. Although both are rooted in the fundamental […]

Because closed die forging does not require hot material like open die forging, it can generate intricate shapes. It is a more efficient and cost-effective method of creating forged products. Likewise, it provides a lower production cost since each part requires less effort after the initial shaping step. Near Net Shape Forging in Detail What […]

The process of closed die forging involves the use of two or more dies for production or tooling. A CNC machine is required to be highly accurate in order to manufacture these dies. The proper temperature has to be reached when the billet is heated up in order to come up with the desired form […]

Closed die forgings can be used in as many ways as a given industry requires. Carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy steel forgings can be found anywhere, ranging in size from the smallest 3-ounce forging to enormous pieces weighing 350 pounds. Examples of industries that use closed die forging are agriculture, aerospace, mining, and off-highway. […]

Otherwise known as impression-die forging, closed die forging relates to a process in which a metal is placed between shapes that are customized to fit the metal. Such metal is then pressed and hammered, causing it to fill and flow in the cavities of the custom-shaped dies. This forging classification is one of the most […]
