Industrial Forged Component Forging is classified in hot, warm and cold, according to the temperature at which is performed. Although hot forging remains the oldest known manufacturing technique, the preference for the one or the other process, doesn’t depend on their quality but on the required characteristics of the final product and the production cost optimization, in accordance with the size’s batch of production. Forging refines the grain structure of the applied materials, mainly metals and alloys and thus improves the mechanical properties of the component making it stronger. Sophisticated hammers and presses are used to deform the material into a desired shape.
