Investment casting refers to the metalworking manufacturing process that’s widely used in various types of industries. Sometimes called lost-wax casting or precision casting, it involves the use of a wax pattern in shaping a ceramic mold before molten metal gets poured into the ceramic shell to create the desired part. […]

Investment casting is one of the most popular methods used for creating metal parts that have countless applications across a variety of industries. Also called lost-wax casting or precision casting, this expendable mold process can produce complex components with excellent surface qualities and accuracy in a broad range of materials […]

Investment casting is one of the oldest known metal-forming techniques. While many other ways of forms of metal-forming have been created over the years, investment casting is still the most popular. Let’s take a look at the comparison between investment castings and other methods and how investment casting can allow […]

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 […]

There are multiple types of forging processes. The two most common are open and closed die forging. While both share the same concept of using pressure and temperature, they differ in their use of dies to form the metal. Let’s take a deeper look at open die forging. Open Die […]

Forgings are popular in a variety of industries. Construction machines, agricultural machinery, automotive, and oilfield equipment all use forgings in some capacity. When it comes to forgings, there are two main types: open die and closed die. Let’s take a look at the difference between open die forging and closed […]

Forging is used in a variety of industries for things like construction machines, agricultural machinery, automotive, and oilfield equipment. When it comes to forgings, there are two main types. Those are open die and closed die forging. Let’s take a look at how open die forging and closed die forging […]

Open die forging involves the shaping of heated metal parts between a top die attached to a ram and a bottom die attached to a hammer, anvil or bolster. Let’s take a look at what the difference is between open die and closed die forging and how the process is […]

When it comes to forging, there are many different options out there. Two of them are open die and seamless rolled ring forging. Let’s take a look at the difference between open die and seamless rolled ring forging as it pertains to ring rolling. Open Die Forging Open die forging […]

Rolled ring forging is a process where a preformed circular piece of metal is pierced to make a donut shape. The ring is heated, then rotated to reduce its wall thickness and increase its diameters. It is used in a number of fields, from the nuclear industry to machine shops […]
