Carbon steel flange free forging process flow details

For free forging, the shape of the forging is gradually forged by some basic deformation process. The basic processes of free forging are upsetting, lengthening, punching, bending and cutting.

1. Upsetting Upsetting is an operation process in which the raw material is forged in the axial direction to reduce its height and increase the cross section. This procedure is commonly used for forging gear blanks and other disc-shaped forgings. The ups and downs are divided into two types: all upsetting and partial forging.

2. Pulling length Pulling length is a forging process that increases the length of the blank and reduces the section. It is usually used to produce shaft blanks, such as lathe spindles and connecting rods.

3. Punching A forging process in which a punch punches a through hole or a through hole without using a punch.

4. Bending A forging process that bends the billet into a certain angle or shape.

5. Torting A forging process that rotates a portion of a blank relative to another portion by a certain angle.

6. Cutting The forging process of dividing the blank or cutting the material.
