The tool segments (2, 3 or 4-jaw tools) exert radial pressure forces on a rotating workpiece. Different workpiece shapes can be achieved by designing the tool segments accordingly. Depending on the degree of forming, this process is carried out cold or hot.
The forging process can be used for steels, aluminum, copper, titanium and other metallic materials.
Automotive industry applications: axle support tubes, stabilizers, air suspension pistons, drive shafts, cardan shafts, camshafts, etc.
General applications: drill pipes, gas pressure cylinders, furniture tubes, railing posts, etc.
