The art of forging dates to at least 4000BC and probably earlier. Metals such as bronze and wrought iron were forged by early man to produce hand toots and weapons of war. Forging of wrought iron and ...

Forging machines use compressive force and a high workpiece temperature to shape metal by plastic deformation. Hot forging is a metallurgical process that forms metal parts by forcing hot metal into ...

Forgings and forged stock are metals and alloys that are thermo-mechanically pressed or forged into bars, rods, or other shapes. Forging is a metallurgical process that subjects metal parts to extreme ...

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 ...
