Dive into the world of metal forging with this incredible journey of transforming scrap metal into a stunning Kukri knife.
Step into the fiery world of extreme metalcraft as a worn, rusted wrench is transformed into a jaw-dropping, razor-sharp katana worthy of a samurai warrior. Witness the intense forging process where ...
When it comes to turning raw metal alloys into useful things, two processes dominate: casting and forging. Both have their place, but when strength and light weight are priorities, forging is the ...
Cleaner processes, made possible by new technologies, help us do our jobs better. One big example is induction (electric) heating of forged billets prior to forging – instead of gas.
Fortunately, RAYS doesn’t. Forging, one of the oldest known manufacturing methods, is the process of shaping metal through compression, and is precisely how the life of a TE37 begins.
“Forging and casting are niche, specialized processes and there are limited domestic sources to produce critical parts the DOD needs,” said Jason Bachtel, chief of RIA-JMTC’s laboratory and ...
Forging involves heating metals and then pressing it into the desired shape. He described the heated metal as being similar to ‘Play Doh', enabling it to be shaped using forging processes.
Think of drop forging as automation of the manual blacksmithing process, with the same metallurgical benefits but in which the finished product is shaped in a series of dies rather than by the ...
Boyd says: “The forging process is taking a solid billet of steel, and then through various steps, using heat, pressure, and tooling dyes to refine it into a part that can be used for golf clubs.
Controlling the grain size in nano-twinned titanium is key to the forging process. Titanium is strong and light, with the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any metal. But giving it a good ...
