Advantages of Forging
• Forged parts have a better grain structure and strength compared to casting or machining.
• Forging improves the structural integrity of the part, by taking care of the defects in the cast work piece viz. porosity, voids, cracks, shrinkage, inclusions, etc.
• Forging forms the work piece metal to the nearest geometric shape of the part, and this results in the reduction of material cost and machining cost.
• Forged parts have better tolerance and higher reliability compared to cast or machined parts.
• The forging process produces parts with consistent metallurgical quality and with good strength and fatigue properties.
• Forging modifies the microstructure of the work piece metal and the forged part has a finer grain structure with the grain flow in the shape of the part.
