Forges
Forgings requre additional processing, as all types of oxidation must be eliminated to guarantee the efficiency of subsequent manufacturing processes. Insufficiently cleaned workpieces can lead to extra costs, which is why it is crucial to rely on an expert like Gostol TST.
Application
- Surface cleaning and scale removal
- Removal of oxide after heat treatment
- Removal of hard residues (sediment)
- Discoloration of surfaces
- Roughening of surfaces
About
Forging is a manufacturing process involving the shaping of metals using hammers or dies. The weight of forged parts can span from under a kilogram to several hundred tons. This method finds frequent application in machanisms and machines demanding high component strength. It's essential to note that all forgings necessitate subsuqent processing. This is because all forms of oxidation must be eradicated to ensure the efficacy of ensuing manufacturing steps such as machining, coating, and paint application.
Neglecting proper cleaning of workpieces can result in heightened processing requirements and increased costs due to premature tool wear or inadequate adhesion of paints and coatings.
When contemplating the most suitable shot blasting machine for your needs, it is necessary to study the characteristics of the workpiece in detail. This underscores the significance of placing trust in a specialist like Gostol TST. Our extensive array of shot blasting machines is tailored for forge applications, ensuring optimal results.
