What’s The Application Areas Of Forging?

Forgings are metal parts processed by forging process, which have high strength, high wear resistance and excellent mechanical properties. Due to these properties, forgings are widely used in various industries. At Maple machinery also have extensive suppily field.

The advantages of forgings are stretchable length and shrinkable cross section;  the types of forgings are: free forging/hand forging, hot die forging/precision Maple machiner forging, upset forging, roll forging and die forging.

offer kinds of die forging, such as forging ring, forged gear ring, forged shaft, forging gear shaft, forged disc, forging cylinder, hollow forging, forged round bar, forged block, etc.    With top quality and best price.

The following are some common forging application areas:

Automobile industry: Forgings are widely used in automobile manufacturing, including engine parts such as crankshafts, connecting rods, camshafts and gears;  chassis parts such as suspension arms, transmission shafts and steering rods; and gearbox parts, etc.    Forging can provide high strength and durability to meet the high performance and reliability needs of automobiles.

Aerospace industry: The aerospace field has strict requirements on the strength, light weight and high temperature resistance of components. Forgings are widely used in aero-engine blades, turbine disks, combustion chamber components, etc. In addition, forgings are also used to manufacture structural and connecting parts of aerospace vehicles. Turbine discs, rear journals, blades, wing spars of aircraft engines, ribbed plates of fuselage, wheel brackets, inner and outer cylinders of landing gear, etc. are all important forgings related to aircraft safety. Aircraft forgings are mostly made of high-strength wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant aluminum alloys, titanium alloys, nickel-based alloys and other precious materials.

Petroleum and chemical industry: Petroleum and chemical equipment requires parts that are resistant to corrosion and high pressure. Forgings play an important role in the manufacture of critical equipment such as pipes, valves, flanges, connections and pressure vessels. Forgings are widely used in petrochemical equipment. Such as manholes and flanges of spherical storage tanks, various tube sheets required for heat exchangers, butt welding flanges, whole forged cylinders (pressure vessels) of catalytic cracking reactors, cylinder joints used in hydrogenation reactors, fertilizers The top cover, bottom cover and head required by the equipment are all forgings.
