Take an overview of closed die forgings from KDK Forging Co.

One of the forging types for tiny or medium metal components is closed die forging , sometimes called impression die forging. In contrast to the open die forging method, the material is pushed to flow in a closed shape called a die during this plastic deformation process. This die forging can produce more intricate geometries that are extremely close to the final component's dimensions compared to open die forging. Rapid plastic deformation is produced by a few shots that push the material into the die's shape. Without any intermediary re-heating, the operation is carried out at the plastic temperature of the material used. Here KDK Forging Co. will provide an overview of the closed forging process. Process Metal is inserted into a die resembling mould and linked to an anvil during closed forging. Typically, the hammer die is also formed. The metal then flows and fills the die cavities as the hammer is struck on the workpiece. Within milliseconds, the hammer repeatedly makes...
