Closed forging
There is no burr. So costs are reduced.
Closed forging is a forging method that uses only materials of almost the same mass as the finished form. Normal forging adjusts the weight so that the material comes out of the mold, but the portion that came out of this method becomes "burr" and must be removed in the post-process.
In the case of closed forging, the mass is controlled not to make materials come out of the mold, so that the material cost for burrs can be saved.
Advantages of Closed forging
- Reduced manufacturing time due to no need for trimming process
- Reduced machining time due to less draft angle
- Material cost reduction to reduce material consumption
- Reducing material losses and contributing to the global environment
