The best method for creating metal ring structures is due to seamless rolled ring forging. Because they gain circumferential grain structures, seamless rolling ring forging produces stronger ring shapes. The end product is the same: round and incredibly strong.   Industries That Often Use Rolled Rings   Marine Industry   Various loading conditions, such as […]

If you take a second to look around, you’ll find that rolled rings are everywhere. These rings are used in countless products that you depend on daily including valves, bearings, washers, flanges, gears, machines, clutches, and drives, just to name a few. These donut-shaped parts range in size from small, washer-like rings to large parts […]

Rings are typically rolled by a process called ring rolling. Ring rolling is done on rolling mills. They can be produced in configurations ranging from flat, washer-like parts to tall, cylindrical shapes, with heights ranging from less than an inch to more than 9 feet. Let’s take a look at the process for rolled rings […]

The rolling process is a major metal forming manufacturing process. During the rolling process, the metal workpiece is compressed between a set of rolls where it reduces its cross section area and increases its length. Rolling is ideal for large length same cross-section workpieces. When it comes to rolling, there are several different types. Let’s […]

Forged rolled rings can have outside diameters that range from 2 to 110 inches. They can also weigh as much as 50,000 pounds or as little as a pound. The process of creating these parts involves piercing a metal preform that’s circular in shape in order to create a donut-shaped component. Next, the heat that’s […]

A technological process called ring rolling is widely used in various industries that include energy and aerospace because it offers high efficiency, precision, and performance. Furthermore, the demand for rolled rings has been steadily increasing because these components are used in the production of aerospace engine parts, gear sprockets, flanges, bearing bushes, rope pulleys, pressure […]

A large manufacturer of industrial motors requested Ferralloy, Inc. to redesign an internal motor component, so as to eliminate a large portion of the machining required to finish it.By utilizing the investment casting process, the company was able to reduce the weight of the casting and actually ‘cast in’ a few features that were machined […]

From drive transmission to gearboxes, producing seamless rings is crucial to provide a quality product. At Ferralloy Inc., we guarantee the manufacturers of these seamless rings tightly control the processes and chemistries of production to decrease residual stresses. Furthermore, this will enhance the mechanical properties of the bearings and other custom gears. Why Opt for […]

Forging refers to the metal shaping method that utilizes compressive forces that are localized. Forged components are widely used in various industries across the globe and according to expert projections, the demand for forged parts will experience steady growth in the years to come. However, it’s important to note that in the manufacturing industry, different […]

Seamless rolled rings are one of the most widespread components in metalworking today. These cylindrical metal parts, which are relatively short in height and possess a hollow middle section, are so popular that it’s hard not to run into these components on a daily basis. A wide range of industries utilize rolled rings, from the […]
