In order to achieve the benefits that grain flow can impart to a forged component, there is a need to understand the end service of the component to produce a forging with the grain flow of the required orientation in the critical region(s) of the component.

In this first of two articles on how design of experiments (DOE) and optimization can be applied to forging, we will define the terms and illustrate how they fit forging design and process development.

A 16-page instructional handbook includes easy-to-follow guidelines for high-temperature solutions that will satisfy the most difficult electrical, structural and industrial applications with proven Cotronics’ brand-name products.

This article will focus on induction heating and its place as an advanced and controlled thermal process enabled by a host of modular and modern heating units tailored for specific forged parts.

Sanghvi Forging & Engineering Ltd. (Sanghvi Forging) is a manufacturer of forged products for non-automotive sectors.

Forging industry executives and technical experts from around the world recently gathered in Cleveland, Ohio’s new Convention Center for three days of technical papers and exhibits.

The CEA 144 is a low-cost, wall-mounted, continuous infrared carbon dioxide gas monitor contained in a rugged steel enclosure with digital display.

The second installment of our series will illustrate how modern forging equipment is both controlled and advanced, harnessing the forces of a hammer or a press.

The focus in the first three parts of this series was on the basics of grain flow and their effects on mechanical properties. In this fourth installment, the typical grain flow for various manufacturing processes will be reviewed.

Cerox fired refractory shapes offer resistance to chemical attack from acids, slags and gases to produce a clean, contaminant-free metal for end users in aerospace and automotive steel foundries.
