Forging components of unusual shape refer to forgings whose structure, shape, and size differ from ordinary parts. These forgings are made during the forging process, resulting in exceptional strength and wear resistance. They are therefore widely used in mechanical manufacturing. Common types of forging components of unusual shape include shafts, gears, pistons, and flywheels.
To produce forging components of unusual shape, designers must have a full understanding of their structure and function to determine the required shape and size. They must then select suitable materials and heat them until they become pliable for hammering. The forging process itself must be adjusted according to the shape and size of the forging component. Finally, the forgings must undergo subsequent processing steps such as machining and heat treatment.
Due to the need for customized forging components of unusual shape according to specific customer requirements, their production cycle is long and their cost relatively high. However, due to their exceptional performance, they have widespread applications in special fields. Advances in modern CAD/CAM/CAE technology have made their design and manufacturing more accurate and efficient.
In conclusion, forging components of unusual shape refer to forgings whose structure, shape, and size differ from ordinary parts. Their production involves high requirements and, due to exceptional performance, they have wide applications in special fields.
