Forging Process & Capabilities — Stancor Forgings

FROM BILLET TO PROOF MACHINED FORGING

Material Selection & Discard

Billet or ingot selected for the grade and finished weight, with ingot top and bottom discard fixed so segregation and pipe never reach the part.

Charged into the furnace and soaked into the grade's forging range, with temperature recorded rather than judged by colour.

Upset and drawn on the press to the ordered reduction ratio, or ring rolled where the geometry suits, with reheats as the section cools.

Normalised, or quenched and tempered, to the ordered property class on a charted cycle with the furnace record issued.

Ultrasonic testing to ASTM A388, magnetic particle or dye penetrant, mechanical testing from a prolongation and PMI.

Proof machined or finish machined to the drawing, dimensions measured and recorded, then rust preventive coated and crated.
