If you’ve ever wondered how modern forging facilities manage to manipulate metal into forged parts, then you’ll need to learn about the basics of drop forging (open die forging or closed die forging). What is Drop Forging? This process involves dropping a hammer onto the metal to mold it into the distinctly-shaped surfaces called dies […]

You’re probably aware that open die forging is a type of hot forging that’s commonly used to create bigger and simpler components in weights that range from a few pounds to over thousands of pounds. However, did you know that open die forgings are known to exhibit soundness, durability, high strength, homogeneity, and flow line […]

Gypsum and enhancing substances are combined to make a mold in plaster mold castings, which are machined. A mixture of plaster plus additives improves castability, permeability, and strength because pure plaster is not particularly robust. For instance, talc or magnesium oxide may speed up the setting and prevent cracking.   What You Need to Know […]

Rolled ring forgings are metal parts that are created through a process referred to as ring rolling. Rolled ring forgings are a very popular metal part. They are used for bearings, clutches, couplings, drives, flanges, gears, glass-lined reactors, machines, robotics, valves, and more. However, it’s important to note that all rolled ring forgings are not […]

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 […]

The process of creating seamless rolled rings is one of the most fascinating and complicated parts in the realm of metal forging! Before advancements in technologies, ring-rolling systems were controlled manually by an operator who had to competently negotiate the proper working method. However, as time flies, the advent of computerized control and modern hydraulics […]

When it comes to seamless rolled rings, there are not only numerous benefits but also tons of practical applications for them in the real world. You might be surprised to find out what goes into the process and what this metal component is used for out in the world. Why Rolled Ring Forging are Used […]

You’re probably aware of the fact that seamless rolled rings forging is hugely popular among various sectors including the machine shops, pharmaceutical companies, and the nuclear industry. In case you’re wondering how the process of rolled ring forging is performed, it starts with a circular preform of metal. This preform is then pierced in the […]

Seamless rolled rings offer numerous advantages, such as using less material to be machined to achieve the final machined part. However, one of the most notable factors why industries opt for these rolled rings is the near net shape factor. Aside from the cost reduction, companies or manufacturers who use the seamless rolled rings process […]
