With the development of modern industry, forging is used more and more widely in all walks of life. However, with the progress of industry and the improvement of technology, people’s quality requirements for forgings are becoming higher and higher. So why are the quality requirements for forgings getting higher and higher?
First of all, with the continuous development of machining technology, people’s requirements for product accuracy are becoming higher and higher. Although the traditional forging process can achieve high strength and toughness requirements, it is difficult to meet the requirements of the size and shape of the product. In response to this problem, some new forging processes continue to emerge, such as precision forging, die forging, etc., these processes can better deal with the accuracy of the product, so the accuracy requirements for forgings are getting higher and higher.
Secondly, the expansion of the application range of forgings is also one of the reasons for the improvement of the quality requirements of forgings. In the past, forgings are mainly used in machinery, aviation, aerospace and other fields, but with the development of society, the application range of forgings is also expanding, such as automobiles, electronics, chemical and other fields have begun to widely use forgings. Products in different fields have different quality requirements for forgings, so the quality requirements of forgings have also increased.
In addition, people’s attention to environmental protection is also one of the reasons for the improvement of quality requirements for forgings. The traditional forging process consumes a lot of energy and raw materials, and also produces a lot of pollutants. In order to reduce the impact on the environment, people began to study new, greener forging processes, such as electric heating forging, pressure deformation and so on. These new technologies can not only reduce energy consumption and pollutant emissions, but also better control the quality of the product, so the quality of the forging requirements are increasingly high.
In summary, the application of forgings in modern industry is more and more extensive, which also leads to the continuous improvement of people’s requirements for the quality of forgings. In order to meet the requirements of the market and customers, forging production enterprises must constantly improve the process, improve the technical level, optimize the management mode, and constantly improve the quality of products to meet the needs of market competition.
