Ring Roll Forging
Ring roll forging, also known simply as ring rolling, is a specialized metalworking process used to produce seamless rings or cylindrical parts with a circular cross-section. This process is commonly used in the production of various components for industries such as aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing.
Advantages of ring roll forging include:
Material Savings: Ring rolling generates minimal waste compared to other methods, making it more efficient in terms of material utilization.
High Strength: The forging process enhances the mechanical properties of the metal, resulting in a strong and durable final product.
Seamless Rings: Ring roll forging produces seamless rings, which are free of welds or joints, enhancing their structural integrity.
Versatility: It can be used to create rings with various cross-sectional profiles and dimensions.
Common applications of ring roll forging include the production of aerospace components like jet engine bearings, flanges, gears, and other critical parts where strength, reliability, and precision are essential.

Gradual Forging
“gradual forging” typically refers to a technique where the metal is shaped incrementally over multiple heatings and deformations to achieve a desired final shape. Each step involves reheating the metal to a malleable temperature and applying force to gradually shape it. This approach is often used when working with complex or intricate designs to minimize the risk of cracking or other defects in the metal.
Max weight of disc can be forged up to 12 tonnes
Diameter range is Ø 180 -1700 mm, length is upon the customer request
Free forging of shaft
Shaft free forging, also known as open-die forging or hand forging, is a metalworking process used to shape cylindrical or tapered parts such as shafts, axles, and other similar components. Unlike closed-die forging, where the metal is shaped within a closed mold, open-die forging involves manipulating the material between two flat or slightly contoured dies. The term “open-die” refers to the fact that the metal is not fully enclosed within a die during the forging process..
Max weight of disc can be forged up to 9 tonnes
Diameter range is Ø 160 -900 mm
Free for forging of discs
Free forging of discs, also known as open die forging of discs, is a metalworking process used to shape and form circular metal components, such as discs or rotors, without the use of a closed mold or die. In this process, the metal is heated to make it more malleable and then shaped by hammering or pressing it between dies that don’t completely enclose the metal. This allows the metal to flow and take the desired shape while undergoing compression and deformation.
This method can be found in applications ranging from automotive and aerospace to heavy machinery and industrial equipment.
Max weight of disc can be forged up to 8 tonnes
Max diameter is Ø1650 mm
