    This document provides an overview of the forging process. It defines forging as shaping metals using compressive forces that exceed the yield strength of the material. The main types of forging are hot forging, where metal is formed above its recrystallization temperature, and cold forging, where metal is formed below this temperature. Various forging operations are described that shape the metal, such as upsetting, heading, and drawing. The document outlines the materials commonly used in forging, the advantages of forging in producing strong, complex parts with close tolerances, and the disadvantages of high die costs and requiring post-processing.

    Forging Operation
    UPSETTING
    HEADING
    FULLERING
    FLATTENING
    EDGING
    DRAWING OR NECKING
    SETTING DOWN
    SWAGING
    PUNCHING
    PIERCING
    BENDING

    Types of Forging
    Hammer Forging (Flat Die)

    Instantaneous Load
    Intermittent blows
    Steam or Air pressure
    Poor surface finish

    Types of Forging
    Press Forging
    Slow continuous pressure
    Pressure extends deep into
    material
    Greater proportion of energy
    transferred to material
    Better surface finish

    Types of Forging
    Die Forging

    Material is forced to fill the recessions


    Complex shapes can be obtained
    Close dimensional tolerances can be achieved

    Forging as compared to other


    manufacturing Processes

    Advantages
    Part Integrity
    Directional Strength
    Grain structure is refined

    Structural Strength

    Impact strength
    Forging improves fracture toughness, impact toughness and fatigue
    strength

    Advantages
    Part Flexibility
    Variety of sizes
    Not limited to size

    Variety of Shapes
    Not limited to shape

    Metallurgical spectrum
    All types of metals and alloys can be forged

    Disadvantages
    Cost of die
    For small production quantity cost of die can be too expensive

    Finishing is required
    Surface finish is poor in this process
