Many people have never heard of foraged steel, but little do they know it’s used all around them. Most things made out of metal can be made stronger with forged steel! Forging was originally implemented to produce different kinds of steel ends with distinct properties. Currently, hydraulic hammers, and other forging machines and processes, make […]

Do you know the history of titanium and titanium tubing? Keep reading to learn the entire backstory of this essential metal! The History of Titanium Titanium’s history begins around 1790, when an ore of titanium was discovered in England and named after “Titan”, the Greek God of enormous strength. It took a while, 120 years […]

A few pounds up to more than 150 tons of forged materials can be produced using open die forging. It is known as open die forging because the metal is not laterally constrained by impression dies when forging. It gradually shapes the initial stock into the required shape, typically between flat-faced dies.   In reality, […]

Metalworkers can create strong and durable metal components using a variety of methods. However, some methods are sometimes better suited for certain projects better than others. Gravity fed castings and steel forgings are extremely different methods. But, how to they measure up against each other? What Are Gravity Fed Castings? Gravity feeding is a method […]

There are few other types of metal components that are as beneficial as castings. Castings offer great design capabilities and produce high quality products that can be used in a wide range of applications for multiple industries. Cast parts are formed by pouring molten metal into a mold cavity, allowing the metal to cool and […]

When it comes to metalworking, there are several different methods a professional can use to create durable components. Sometimes a manufacturer is able to get a product so close to its final stage that finishing is not a requirement. This is the opposite of net shape manufacturing. Learn more about near net shaping and why […]

In metalworking, rolling is a metal forming process in which metal stock is passed through one or more pairs of rolls to reduce the thickness and to make the thickness uniform. Seamless rolled rings give your forging the best strength, fatigue resistance, and freedom from inclusions. Let’s take a look at where you can find […]

There are several types of metal rolling – all of which allow metal workers to create large and small pieces. And, certain methods of ring rolling provide extremely strong and reliable components for an array of industry needs. But, one of the perks of ring rolling is the variety of shapes it can make. Shear […]

Metal is shaped into a particular form using a mold during the casting process, especially when it involves alloy castings. This method has been used for thousands of years to make various metal objects.   You must choose the best metal for casting based on the type of object you are planning to cast or […]

The process of forging seamless rings plays a significant role in the manufacturing of other important components. Forging is a technique of manufacturing strong, typically metal, components for use in machinery. The foraged items can be made for when apparatuses are required for the expansion of wind turbines or high-quality gears for mechanics. Seamless ring […]
