Hot and Cold Forging

The Pinnacle of Strength and Precision at SchGo Engineered Products

Forging, a time-honored metalworking process, has been instrumental in shaping the world of manufacturing. At SchGo Engineered Products, we pride ourselves on our deep-rooted expertise in both hot and cold forging, ensuring our clients receive components of unparalleled strength, durability, and precision.

Understanding Hot and Cold Forging:

  1. Hot Forging: As the name suggests, hot forging involves heating the metal to a temperature where it becomes malleable, typically above its recrystallization temperature. This allows the metal to be shaped without any cracking. Once heated, the metal is then deformed using our state-of-the-art equipment to achieve the desired shape.
  2. Cold Forging: Contrary to hot forging, cold forging deforms metal at room temperature or slightly above. The process enhances the strength of the metal due to strain hardening and ensures a superior surface finish.

SchGo’s Capabilities:

Our hot forging parts range from a mere 0.10 lbs to a substantial 50 lbs, catering to a diverse array of applications including motorcycle parts, automobile components, mechanical rigging, and other hardware essentials.

Our facility boasts an impressive array of equipment, ensuring every project meets the highest standards of quality and precision:

  • Drop Hammers: Air power drop hammers in capacities of 2.0 ton, 1.3 ton, 1.25 ton, and 1.0 ton.
  • Forging Presses: Powerful forging presses of 1000 ton and 3000 ton capacities.
  • Induction Heaters: Ranging from 700 kw to 200 kw, ensuring optimal heating for various metal types.
  • Quality Assurance Tools: Our commitment to quality is further emphasized with tools like the magnetic particle detector, Rockwell hardness tester, microstructure analyzer, and mechanical properties analyzer.
