INTRODUCTION

With the recent and rapid uptick in the need for gearing components, companies are turning to their suppliers demanding faster turnaround and better quality…all at a reduced cost in order to give them the leg up over their competition and make their businesses more productive and profitable.

Due to computer-aided design, close customer collaboration, enhanced forging equipment and creative forging techniques, advanced forging companies have been able to combine the advantages of open die forging with the near-net shape capability of closed die forging to tailor a forging process that optimizes time and cost savings. These hybrid open die/closed die designs allow for part flexibility and economic advantages. This means that forged parts of virtually any material or geometry can be manufactured relatively quickly and economically.

DESCRIPTION:
This webinar intends to demonstrate how, using the advantages of open die forging combined with the near-net shape capability of closed die forging, the forging process can be tailored to optimize time and cost savings for the gearing industry.
