What is Closed Die Forging Birmingham?
Closed die forging is a method of drop forging that involves the shaping of metal within the confines of a set of dies. It offers a level of precision that is able to ensure your product has the detailing and specifications required with ease.
Sometimes otherwise known as impression die forging, this process involves raw metal being placed in a die that is then attached to an anvil beneath a hammer. This hammer die is them dropped onto the workpiece, creating a powerful blow that disperses the metal within the die into open spaces to reshape the piece and fill any cavity gaps.
Similarly, to upset forging, this process may require the metal within the die to go through a number of drop forging dies before completion from raw materials. The result of this process brings precision in dimensions, intricate details, and enhanced mechanical properties.
