Cold Forging

Cold forging is a metalworking displacement process that forms material into the desired shape in a single-pass process as compared with weldments and other fabrication methods, which typically involve several steps.

Applications

Cold forging offers important advantages for custom parts that require high strength and large production volumes, such as:

01

Shafts and axles.

02

Gears and sprockets.

03

Fasteners.

04

Steering and suspension components.

05

Engine and transmission components.

06

Brake system parts.

07

Chassis components.

How it works

Cold forging is an “impact forming” process that deforms raw material plastically, under high compressive force, using a single-pass operation.

Industries we serve:

Automotive

Data Storage

Industrial

Medical

Features and benefits

Cold forging delivers superior part strength, tight tolerances, and excellent surface finish, while minimizing material waste, reducing costs, and enabling efficient high-volume, near-net-shape production.

01

Higher productivity for volume production.

02

Material savings and cost reduction.

03

Improved strength, part integrity and material utilization.

04

Enhanced appearance and surface finishing.

Built fast and fine, tough by design

Our history of delivering custom cold-forging solutions is unmatched.

End-to-end partnering

From ideation and design inception through prototyping and full production, we help customers evaluate and implement cold forged parts & assemblies.

Range of materials options

Our experts help with choosing the optimal material for cold forging, such as:

  • Carbon steels – low to medium carbon steels up to 0.60% carbon.
  • Stainless steels – 300 and 400 series.
  • Alloy steels of suitable mechanical properties and ductility.
  • Copper and its alloys.
  • Aluminum and its alloys.

Improved part integrity and strength

The high compression cold forging displaces and rearranges the grain of the base material such that any inherent weaknesses are eliminated. This is important for part designs where the required shape could experience weak points along the existing grain of the base material. Cold forging eliminates any issues with the underlying grain of the raw material.

Unmatched cold forging capabilities

Our cold forging experts have extensive experience with a wide range of applications and with key process optimization issues.

Comprehensive solutions

Our knowledge of cold forging applications and vertical integration processes offers a valuable alternative to conventional machining or casting processes.

A focus on ROI

The key to success is to start early in the design process and to consider overall production volume and ramp-up requirements so that cold forging can be leveraged for optimal ROI and quality results.

Tailored solutions for your unique design challenges

In some instances, where strength, shape and surface smoothness are critical issues, cold forging is the only process that can successfully produce parts that meet the required specifications.
