Compared with other forging manufacturing methods, free forging has the following advantages: high flexibility: compared with die forging, free forging does not need to use a fixed die, and can flexibly adjust the shape and size according to needs. This makes free forgings more adaptable and able to meet the manufacturing needs of a variety of complex products. High production efficiency: Free forgings usually have high-speed impact force and pressure, so that the metal material is completed in a short time. Compared with other forging methods, free forging has higher production efficiency and can improve production capacity and processing efficiency. Superior mechanical properties: In the process of free forging, metal materials undergo strong deformation and adjustment, grain refinement, dense organization, so as to obtain more excellent mechanical properties. Forgings typically have higher strength, toughness and fatigue life, and are able to meet demanding engineering requirements. High accuracy: Free forging is not limited by the mold, and high shape and dimensional accuracy requirements can be achieved by adjusting forging parameters and processes. This has greater advantages in certain application areas, such as aerospace, precision machinery, etc., when the accuracy of the workpiece is high. Cost saving: Compared with other forging methods that require molds, free forgings do not need to use molds in the manufacturing process, which can save the manufacturing and maintenance costs of molds. This not only reduces cost input, but also improves production efficiency and flexibility. In summary, free forging has the advantages of high flexibility, high production efficiency, superior mechanical properties, high precision and cost saving. Therefore, in the specific product needs and application scenarios, the choice of free forging manufacturing method can bring more benefits.
