1. Technology (1) Technology Introduction Forging is a manufacturing process involving the shaping of metal using localized compressive forces. The blows are delivered with a hammer (often a power hammer) or a die. Forging is often classified according to the temperature at which it is performed: cold forging (a type of cold working), warm forging, or hot forging (a type of hot working). (2) Process Parameters Technical Parameters Cast weight: 0.05kg to 20kgs Cast size: 500 mm x 500 mm x 500 mm Capacity: 5000 Tons/Year Testing Facility: Chemical, Mechanical, NDT, Hydro, Hardness, Micro Structure and General Inspection Surface treatment: Nickel Plating. Chrome Plating, Powder Coating, Paint etc. (3) Material Introduction Ferrous Alloys Low Carbon Steel (Grade # EN 1A, SAE 1020, SAE 1010 etc.) Medium Carbon Steel (Grade # EN 8, EN 31, EN 9, SAE 1045 etc.) High Alloy Steel (Grade # 16MnCr5, 20MnCr5, EN 19, EN 24 etc.) Stainless Steel (Grade # SS 304, SS 310, SS 316 etc..) Non Ferrous Alloys Brass (Grade # Free Cutting Brass, DZR, CuZn40Pb2 etc.) And as per customer specified materials in ASTM, DIN, BS, IS, JIS standards 2. Product Introduction The Hammer Union can be used for cementing trucks, all kinds of manifolds and other high pressure equipment, and pipes, which made of high quality steel by forging and finishing cut, with good mechanical performance and sealing property.
