What are the application cases of free forging in the aerospace field?
Close Die Forging has a wide range of application cases in the aerospace field, mainly including the following aspects: Engine parts: Free forging is often used in aerospace to manufacture key engine parts, such as compressor blades, shafts, connecting rods and camshafts. Because free forgings can provide higher strength and toughness, as well as better fatigue properties, these key components need to withstand extremely high temperatures, pressures and loads, which have high requirements for material properties. Landing gear parts: Aircraft landing gear also requires the use of free forging. For example, components such as landing gear struts, wheels and connectors need to have good durability and impact resistance to cope with the aircraft’s high impact loads during land landing and take-off. Aircraft structural parts: Some of the aircraft’s integral or partial structural parts also use the free forging process to provide better strength and stiffness. For example, wing backplanes, fuselage members and hangers may be manufactured using a free forging process, thereby increasing the structural strength and service life of the aircraft. Missile and rocket parts: missiles and rockets are important equipment in aerospace, and their parts are often made of free forging. For example, missile nose cones, propellant valves, and engine flares require free forging to meet harsh operating environments and high reliability requirements. All in all, the application of free forging in the aerospace field is very wide, involving engine parts, landing gear parts, aircraft structural parts, and missile and rocket parts. Parts manufactured through the free forging process provide better strength, toughness and durability to meet the demand for high-performance materials in the aerospace sector.
