Developments in near-net-shape forging processes promise to enhance engine performance, strengthen components for oil and gas drilling and improve hermetic seals for high-power semiconductors.

When metal is forged, it is deformed using compressive pressures to create a desired shape. Forcing the metal into the desired form, this method employs a sequence of compressive hammers. Many ...

The global isothermal forging market is expected to grow from $7.77 billion in 2022 to $8.56 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the ...

A process to make titanium from rutile sand promises to cut the cost of the lightweight metal and cement the UK's position in the aerospace supply chain A consortium including the Advanced Forming ...

In a variety of industries, casting and forging are popular methods of creating components and parts. In spite of this, the processes are very different from one another, and the products produced by ...

Forging is a traditional metalworking process in which metal is molded into shape by using the pressure induced by an impact hammer. Cold forging is employed for making smaller steel parts and softer ...
