- Ensures a high-quality finish and consistent cross-sectional area.
Ring Rolling
- Uses rolling mills to form rings from metal preforms.
- Produces high-strength rings with consistent circular cross-sections.
- Used for bearings, gears, flanges in aerospace, automotive, and oil industries.
Swaging Forging
- Shaping metal by applying radial blows using a swaging machine.
- Ideal for producing tapered, pointed, or reduced-diameter parts.
- Used in aerospace, automotive, medical industries for instruments, shafts, and fittings.
Based on Die Configuration
Open-Die Forging
- Shapes metal using dies that do not completely encase it.
- Uses simple, flat, or slightly contoured dies.
- Typically for large parts like shafts, rings, and disks.
- Common in the power generation, shipbuilding, and aerospace sectors.
Closed-Die Forging (Impression Die Forging)
- Encases the metal in a die that functions like a mold.
- The dies hold impressions that match the desired shape.
- Offers a smooth surface finish and excellent dimensional precision.
- Used for automotive parts, tools, hardware, machinery components.
Based on Specific Techniques
Upset Forging
- Compresses the length of the workpiece to increase its diameter.
- Produces parts with thicker cross-sections.
- Commonly used for bolts, screws, and fasteners.
- Applications in automotive, construction, and machinery industries.
Coining Forging
- A precise, closed-die process squeezing metal into detailed shapes.
- Creates parts with precise dimensions and a superior surface finish.
- Typically applied to produce coins, medals, and finely detailed gears.
- Applications in minting, aerospace, and electronics industries.
Extrusion Forging
- Forces metal through a die to create long, fixed cross-section profiles.
- Produces parts with uniform material properties.
- Commonly used for pipes, tubes, and rods.
- Applications in construction, automotive, and industrial sectors.
Isothermal Forging
- Maintains a constant temperature near the metal’s recrystallization point.
- Produces parts with uniform microstructure and properties.
- Commonly used for turbine blades and precision components.
- Applications in aerospace, energy, and high-performance industries.
Seamless Rolled Ring Forging
- Tarts with open-die forging to create a donut shape.
- Produces high-strength, circular cross-section rings.
- Commonly used for bearings, gears, and flanges.
- Used across aerospace, automotive, oil, and gas sectors.
Precision Forging
- Produces near-net shape parts with minimal post-forging machining.
- High accuracy and tight tolerances achieved.
- Minimal waste of material during production.
- Ideal for high-performance gears, aerospace components, precision tools.

Popular Questions
Which materials can be used in open die drop forging?
Can hot and cold forging be used together in a manufacturing process?
How do open and closed forging vary from one another?
Open forging, sometimes referred to as open-die forging, is the process of forming metal between several dies that do not totally encapsulate the substance. Closed forging, also known as closed-die forging, creates more intricate and exact shapes by completely enclosing the metal in dies.
