Making the die inside the plant keeps the part and the die under review together.

Grain flow in the section

A cross-section of a forged part: the metal flows in fibres that follow the die shape. Drag to rotate, scroll to zoom; open the section and follow the fibre lines.

The model shows a generic forged part; its dimensions do not belong to a specific product.

How the work is organised

01

The die stays on the same site

The tool room has stood on the same site as the forge since 1989. When die and part are handled together, a dimensional difference is spotted on site and the die is corrected there.

02

From 200 grams to 60 kilograms

The same plant produces hundreds of different parts between 200 grams and 60 kilograms. So wide a range means die and forging parameters are handled part by part.

03

Export shipping

Around 70% of output is shipped to countries including Germany, Sweden, Belgium, Brazil, the United States, Italy, Egypt and Canada. Long distances make part identification and packing order matter.

The section model is a general illustration. The written part of this page carries the three headings that can be stated today; certificates, measurement records and material documents are published in the same layout as they arrive.
