Complex geometries and near-net-shape production requirements call for high-performance lubrication methods, and one alternative is also more environmentally responsible.
Efficient separation and lubrication for hot forming, full-flood application
Forms film to control heat transfer
Solubility reduces build-up
Glass coating release agents
The Forging Industry Association has been bringing forgers and their equipment suppliers together for four decades, to discuss technology and see the latest production capabilities — but Forge Fair 2015 was something of a first: the first...
Siempelkamp collaborates with Leistritz for new automatic isothermal presses, for TiAl parts
Recrystallized blade structure for safety, quality
Symmetrical press for high precision forging
First machine starting in 2016
For forgers or anyone operating MIG equipment, problems start at the drive rolls and run all the way to the tip. Effective delivery of filler metal and shielding gas can keep a good day rolling along … Here are five techniques for optimizing...
Effective delivery of filler metal and shielding gas can keep a good day rolling along
Keeping drive rolls clean
Monitor pressure
Watch the liner, diffuser
Optimal material flow for different materials, including titanium- and nickel-based and steel alloys
Prevents hot gas corrosion, hydrogen diffusion
High-elasticity lubricant
Will not react with metal die surfaces
Water-based products combine specific formulation technology with special grain-size distribution
Ferrous/nonferrous automotive and aerospace parts
High-temp binder for uniformity
