FAQ

Forging is a manufacturing process in which a metal billet is subjected to high pressure, either by pressing, pounding, or squeezing, to form high-strength parts known as forgings. The process is typically performed at elevated temperatures, where the metal is preheated to a desired temperature before shaping. Unlike casting, the forging process does not involve melting and pouring metal. Instead, the material remains solid throughout the process, which contributes to its superior strength and durability.

Two primary benefits of forged parts:

Strength: Forgings are known for producing parts that are significantly stronger than castings or machined components. They get their strength from the grain structure alignment that makes a forging well-suited for high-torque, bending, and many other demanding applications.
Cost Reduction: Our near-net forgings can mimic the final shape of your part. This reduces the amount of time needed for machining and drastically reduces cost.

We specialize in closed-die forging. We have an array of machines that can produce parts from 0.25lbs up to 200+ lbs.

Closed-die forging produces parts that are ‘near-net’ to the final shape. Metal is heated to over 2000*F and compressed to fill contours of the die blocks. This method is preferred over others because it drastically reduces machining costs, and the surface finish is often of such high quality portions are left untouched through final assembly.

The best way to know if we can make your part is to see a drawing. We have a wide array of product capabilities ranging in shape, size, weights, and material type.

Assembly is the process of combining individual components into a finished product during manufacturing. An assembled part can vary in complexity from a simple combination of a few components joined by basic processes to a more intricate assembly that includes a diverse range of parts like stampings, springs, rivets, pins, forgings, and many other components. These parts are integrated using methods such as mechanical fastening, welding, riveting, or adhesive bonding, depending on the application. The result is a functional part that can be used either on its own or as component to a larger system.

We supply parts for heavy commercial trucks, buses, off-road vehicles, service vehicles, emergency vehicles, and private aviation. Our product range includes latches, door hardware, controls, handles, hinges, and government components, among others. We also offer customization options to meet specific needs.

Machining is a manufacturing process that uses cutting and forming tools to remove material from a workpiece, shaping it to the desired geometry. Machining processes we provide include drilling, threading, milling, turning, and boring. In addition to these traditional methods, we also offer cost-effective alternatives for certain applications, such as coining, stamping, and punching.

We provide a wide array of in-house machining services, including but not limited to: turning, milling, roll threading, cut threading, grinding, and die manufacturing.
