With the growth of economic globalization and demand, stainless steel forgings have been widely used in industrial applications. As an important representative region of global forging manufacturing, Europe and America have rich experience in the production technology of stainless steel forgings.
The production technology of stainless steel forgings is diverse, and can be divided into many categories according to different materials, varieties, and production methods. Common ones include hot extrusion forming, hot forging forming, cold extrusion forming, and plasma cutting forming. Each forging process has its own characteristics and scope of application, so choosing the appropriate process has a positive effect on improving product quality and reducing production costs.
In Europe and America, the application range of stainless steel forgings is very wide, mainly used in aerospace, nuclear power, precision machinery, medical equipment, food processing and other fields. In these fields, the quality and performance requirements of stainless steel forgings are very high, so the production process and quality control are also high.
In terms of national policy support, the Chinese government has made positive efforts to promote the high-quality development of manufacturing industry. For example, in recent years, the country has emphasized on technological innovation and reform policies for industries related to industrial forging, ships, and automobiles. At the same time, the country has also issued various related standards and specifications such as GB/T5231-2012, GB/T8898-2011, GB/T2059-2010, GB/T6398-2006 etc., which have specific provisions for the production and quality management of stainless steel forgings.
Taking hot extrusion forming as an example, this technology is widely used in multiple fields including nuclear power, petrochemicals, semiconductors, etc. The advantages of this process are high efficiency, low loss, and output from both ends, which is particularly suitable for the production of hollow shaft products. Some well-known domestic stainless steel forging companies also use this technology for production. These companies adhere to the national standards, strictly control defects and foreign matter in products, ensuring product quality stability and reliability.
In conclusion, the production technology and application of stainless steel forgings popular in Europe and America have been fully applied and verified. At the same time, with the support of various national policies and standards, China’s stainless steel forging manufacturing industry is also moving towards a higher level, making outstanding contributions to meeting the needs of both domestic and overseas markets.
