Forging Methods, Equipment, and Applications
Forging is a manufacturing process that many industries rely on. In fact, hundreds of forged parts can be found in aircraft, vehicles, agricultural equipment, trains, mining machinery, and more. Forgings are stronger and more reliable than other processes such as casting and welding. In addition, because the metal forging process can efficiently produce complex geometries, it can be a more cost-effective manufacturing process. A common misconception is that forging is a universal method; in fact,...
