Forging is the process of shaping metal through the application of force. There are several different types of forging methods, including open die forging. Let’s take a look at what open die forging is, some of its advantages, and who has the best forgings. What Is It? Open die forging is known as smith forging. […]

A lot of industries know by now that open die forging can measurably decrease the costs of materials, as it needs less starting stock to create several part shapes. Hence, less machining is required to achieve a specific metal component with the added assistance of lesser lead time.Likewise, it has the ability to reduce wear […]

Have you ever heard of the term “smith forging”? Before all the advancements in tools and technology, forging was performed by a smith using an anvil and hammer to produce and create forged metal – hence, the term. Smith forging, commonly known as open die forging, is a process that involves a hammer striking and […]

Open die forging is known to have the most demanding applications in the metal industry. It is used because of the several features it contributes, such as near net shape materials and improved structural integrity. Read on to know the typical open die forging applications. Applications and Benefits of Open Die Forging Applications Forging metals […]

The casting process involves the mass production of components in which metals in a molten state are poured or injected into prepared molds where they solidify into solid metal shapes before being sand or shot blasted to their desired shapes. Compared to other methods such as shaping or cutting, complex metal parts can be rapidly […]

If you’re familiar with the production of investment castings, you probably understand how important heat treatments are regardless if your project requires ferrous or non-ferrous alloys. Without the critical stage of applying heat treatments, the mechanical properties of the materials used will not be sufficiently enhanced. Therefore, a range of heat treatment processes such as […]

There are many benefits to vacuum casting in the investment casting process. Before we dive into that though, let’s talk a little about what vacuum casting for investment castings is. What Is Vacuum Casting? Vacuum casting is commonly used in generating prototypes and industrial parts. It is a flexible and reliable process that requires either […]

Investment castings, which are often referred to as lost-wax castings, are metal parts that are produced by the investment casting process. This expendable mold process and the components that it produces is extremely popular for countless applications in numerous industries. This is largely due to the fact that the investment casting process makes it possible […]

If you need unique parts for your next project, you may want to consider choosing investment castings. Due to the fact that it offers flexibility in terms of design, these components are widely used in various industries. Primarily created by utilizing a specific mold for the series of coating and hardening processes, investment castings feature […]

If you have a project of metal parts and you’re not quite sure about the production process that it requires, it’s best to look into the investment casting technique. Better yet, talk to an expert at producing investment castings and other engineered metal products. In most cases, people choose the investment casting method when they […]
