Cold Forging Press

Cold forging is a metal shaping & manufacturing process in which bar stock is inserted into a die and squeezed into a second closed die. … Unlike warm or hot forging, cold forging shapes and deforms bar stock at room temperature using localized, compressive force.Cold forging is used for gear production because it eliminates the need of cutting in gear shaping. Gears can be produced from billets that are less than 50 mm or shaped using coiled wire. Some annealing may be necessary to remove residual stress and work hardening.A cold forging hydraulic press is a hydraulic-powered press machine that performs cold forging (often cold forming or cold working) operations. The cold forging process refers to the process in which a workpiece is shaped by means of pressing force at room temperature.
