Near-Net Forging
| Quick-Change
Tooling | Technology
These are examples of flashless forgings. They allow our customers
to chuck on the OD of the part without having to worry about a
parting/trim line. Since the part is produced entirely in the
bottom die, you dont have to worry about top die to bottom
die mismatch on the OD. Volume control, i.e., the input billet
weight, is critical with this type of forging because the die
cavity is completely closed. If there is too much material, the
tooling breaks. If there isnt enough, the part doesnt
fill. Most forgers avoid this type of forging because they cannot
maintain the process controls necessary.
We have found that the machining savings our customers typically
achieve using flashless forgings, more than offset the additional
costs associated with this type of manufacturing process.
