The history of forging manufacturing can be traced back to ancient times, in ancient times there has been a forging production technology, but due to tools and equipment restrictions and other reasons are too rough, and has not been widely used. With the development and improvement of technology, modern forging manufacturing technology has been very mature, both to meet the needs of all walks of life, but also to promote the development of the industry.
Forging is an important metal material processing method, by plastic deformation of metal under high pressure to form it into the desired shape and size. Forging is widely used in machinery, automobile, metallurgy, electric power and other industrial fields, and has become one of the core processes of modern machinery manufacturing.
The process of forging is divided into two stages: prefabrication and forming. The prefabrication stage includes the preparation of metal materials and the production of finished molds. The forming stage completes the forging process by applying huge pressure to the metal material to transform the raw material into the desired shape and size. The main forming methods include free forging, impact forging, uniform extrusion forging, asynchronous extrusion forging and so on.
The advantages of forging are many. First of all, the forgings have high structural strength, good wear resistance and corrosion resistance to prevent cracks or deformation of the material due to fatigue. Secondly, the forgings can maintain accurate dimensions and geometry. In essence, the processing of forgings is a controlled process that enables maximum performance improvement from the base material under extremely demanding conditions. At the same time, the forging process is often heated locally, which can improve the plasticity of the material, reduce the difficulty of processing, and improve production efficiency.
Forging also has some limitations and limitations. For complex shaped parts, the process and product costs of forging manufacturing may be higher than other processes. At the same time, due to the need for larger manufacturing equipment and higher labor costs, the equipment maintenance and update of the forging plant has become a more important issue. In addition, for the forging and processing of large and ultra-large parts, it is also necessary to consider how to solve the problems of production and transportation.
In general, forging manufacturing is very important in the modern industrial field, its research and development technology and processing capacity will continue to be improved and improved, while the use of new materials, new processing technology and other innovative means will also help improve the quality of forging and reduce costs. Through continuous development and improvement of technology, improving quality capabilities, and creating an innovative environment, the forging manufacturing industry is expected to shine in the future and make greater contributions to global economic and technological development.
