Always consider the manufacturing process when designing a part. Forging, casting, and machining can all be used to produce metal parts, but the costs and resulting mechanical properties will differ…
Amid all the talk of bringing manufacturing back to the U.S., one point often gets overlooked: what does it mean to be “Made in the USA”? This question matters because…
Drop hammer forging is a metal fabrication method that uses two die halves, each with opposing female impressions (much like molds), one on a stationary anvil and the other attached…
When you need strength, toughness, and integrity in a metal part, forging is usually the solution. Most metals can be forged close to their final shape, which reduces machining requirements…
