Upset forging, also referred to as hot heading, is a highly efficient metal forging process that enhances the cross-sectional size of a bar, either at one end or along its length. This technique is performed using specialized upsetting machines with…
Open die forging, also known as smith forging, blacksmith forging, hand forging, or flat-die forging, is a versatile metal forging technique that doesn't require specialised tooling. The final shape and dimensions of the forged products depend on the operator's skill…
Closed die forging is a highly precise metal forging process where the workpiece is inserted between two dies that contain the desired shape for forging. The dies are brought together, causing the workpiece to deform plastically until it fully contacts…
Hot metal bending, also known as induction bending, is a highly effective method for shaping metal components through the application of heat. When compared to cold bending techniques, induction bending offers distinct advantages, including reduced deformation and minimised distortion in…
