FORGING
Forging is a metalworking process that involves shaping metal through hammering, pressing, or rolling. The compressive forces are delivered using a hammer or die. Forging can be categorised based on the temperature at which it is performed.
We provide hot forging solution, where the metal is heated before shaping. It is suitable for large components and offers excellent mechanical properties due to recrystallisation during the process.
Forged parts find applications in various industries, from automotive, aerospace to General engineering, where high strength and durability are essential.
Forging is also suitable for high to medium volume requirements and can offer a faster time around time and delivery.
Forging does not provide a finished component and is complemented with good machining services.
Trushape UK can supply forged only net-shaped material or full machined parts. We off Inhouse machining, broaching and gear cutting services.
In forging, Trushape UK offers a variation of materials that are commonly used to create strong and reliable components. Let us explore some of these materials:
Known for its strength, durability, and cost-effectiveness, carbon steel is widely used in forging. Different grades allow tailored components.
Contains additional elements (like chromium, nickel, or molybdenum) for enhanced properties such as strength, corrosion resistance, and heat resistance.
Prized for corrosion resistance, it is ideal for components exposed to moisture, chemicals, or extreme temperatures.
Lightweight with excellent corrosion resistance, commonly used in aerospace, automotive, and sporting goods.
Excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, suitable for electrical connectors and heat transfer applications.
A copper-zinc alloy used in fittings, valves, and decorative items.
