What is the market status and development trend of free forgings?
Free forging is a processing method that changes the shape of metal materials by hammering or pressure. It has excellent properties such as high strength, wear resistance and corrosion resistance, and is widely used in aerospace, automobile manufacturing, construction machinery and energy. At present, the free forging market presents the following characteristics and trends: The market size continues to expand: With the rapid development of aerospace, automotive manufacturing and other industries, the demand for high-strength metal parts continues to increase. Free forging as a processing method to meet the material performance requirements of these industries, the market size is also expanding year by year. Technical level: With the progress of science and technology and the improvement of the process, the technical level of free forging continues to improve. The development of new forging equipment, digital control system and advanced die design has significantly improved the quality and efficiency of free forging. Diverse material selection: With the continuous emergence of new materials, the material selection of free forgings has become more diverse. In addition to traditional steel, aluminum alloy and other materials, there has also been the application of new materials such as superalloy and titanium alloy, which has further broadened the market field of free forging. Environmental protection and energy conservation requirements: with the enhancement of environmental protection and energy conservation awareness, higher requirements have been put forward for energy consumption and waste emissions in the process of material processing. As a relatively environmentally friendly processing method, free forging has a low energy consumption and waste generation, and has a certain competitive advantage in the market. To sum up, the free forging market has broad prospects and a positive development trend. With the promotion of industry demand and technological progress, free forging will be more widely used and developed in the future.
