Forging Presses  Manufacturers, Traders, Suppliers

Forging presses produce high-quality products Forging presses and forging hammers are the suitable units for the production of high-quality forged parts for almost every branch of industry. In forging presses, the highly heated material blank is brought into the desired shape by slowly applied force in the die. In contrast to the forging hammer, the hot forming process, which is slow, enables the flow and upsetting process to form the material much more efficiently. The working force of forging presses is given in kN. Forging presses are used to produce high-quality safety components for the automotive industry as well as many types of closures and components for mechanical and aircraft engineering. Since forgings are normally produced in large series, it is the declared aim of production to achieve the highest possible degree of final manufacture. This means that small production allowances and narrow tolerances are required. DIN EN 10243 summarises the main requirements for forging technology. The surfaces of the products produced by a forging press can be either unmachined, reworked or machined. As a rule, however, a large number of forgings are machined so that precisely fitting bores and installation dimensions can be achieved. In many cases, the material structure of forged parts is refined and improved by appropriate heat treatment.Further information and accessories for presses can be found under Press accessories.
