Forging companies specialize in the manufacturing process of shaping metal, typically through the application of force using forging presses, hammers, or other hot stamping equipment. Forging involves heating the metal to a malleable temperature and shaping it into the desired form. This process can be used to create a wide range of products, including automotive.
Forging companies can use band saws or circular saws, depending on the specific requirements of the project, the type of steel being used, and the desired outcome. Advantages of circular saws are the quality of the cutting surface, high production speed, and therefore efficient production combined with low investment cost. Long steel bars are cut to length rapidly with a circular saw, ensuring a smooth cutting surface and tight squareness tolerances. KINKELDER has broad experience in cutting for the forging industry, both with materials and dedicated cutting machines.
