Semi-hot forging.<\/h1>\n

Mastering demanding pressing tasks with semi-hot forging<\/h2>\n

However, it reaches its technical limits with large material thicknesses or brittle materials. Hot forging is the process of choice when it comes to forming solid components and resistant materials. However, hot forging is always at the expense of precision, so that the parts produced in this way always have to be reworked. Semi-hot forging was developed to enable the efficient processing of even demanding and heavy components through forging. In this younger production process, the materials are heated to temperatures between 250 \u00b0C – 900 \u00b0C. This is far below the temperatures used in conventional hot forging. The heating of blanks achieves two goals – high-precision forming results and the reduction of the required forging energy.<\/p>\n

In fact, the products machined with semi-hot forging achieve a net shape or near net shape quality. This means that the products are created during the forging process in a finished or almost finished state. The semi-hot forging process is associated with a considerable reduction in the required energy: The pressing force can be reduced by a good third by preheating the blanks. Semi-hot forging is thus the answer to the demand for higher productivity with consistent production quality. Through semi-hot forging, the massive forging is implemented with a completely new efficiency through a compliance with the required tolerances.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column offset=”vc_col-lg-6 vc_col-md-6″][vc_column_text]This process is suitable for all “flowable” materials, i.e. mainly metals. It is already being used with great success for the machining of aluminum, copper, stainless steel and even titanium. The undesired scaling of the surface associated with hot forging no longer occurs due to the lower temperatures. The following applications are possible manufacturing processes for semi-hot forging:<\/p>\n
