What We Forge
Closed Die Forging
Closed-die forging uses custom dies or tooling with a pre-cut profile that move together to shape the workpiece with precision.
Depending on the design and performance requirements of the part, the tooling can be developed for either conventional or precision forging. This process allows manufacturers to produce complex components with greater consistency, tighter tolerances, and the strength required for demanding aerospace applications.
Open Die Hand Forging
Open-die forging shapes metal by compressing it between two flat dies, making it an efficient solution for creating simple forms without the need for custom tooling.
This flexible process is well suited for a wide range of part sizes and allows manufacturers to refine material structure while maintaining strength and reliability. For projects that require durability, efficiency, and adaptability, open-die forging offers a practical foundation for high-quality results
