Forging
In forge shops, parts are subjected to extreme thermal and mechanical stress. Our welding electrodes and wires ensure the repair and hardfacing of critical components such as anvils, hammers, dies and frames, prolonging their service life under severe conditions.
Read moreThe forging industry places extreme demands on equipment: high impact loads, high temperatures, repeated thermal cycles and localized wear.
Welding is a key solution for the maintenance and reconditioning of critical components such as anvils, drop hammers, frames, slides, dies or press platens. Suitable electrodes and wires enable hardfacing of impact surfaces, repair of cracks or chips, and resizing of parts subject to deformation. Some specific alloys are particularly resistant to the thermal and mechanical shocks common in these environments. Welding also helps to extend the life of forging tools, limit production stoppages and optimize maintenance costs. Well-controlled maintenance guarantees the reliability and precision of forging operations.
A few examples
-
Free forging - FCW Ni520
It is ideal for repairing free-forging parts subjected to repeated thermal and mechanical shocks. Its nickel-based composition ensures excellent resistance to cracking and hot wear. It guarantees tough, long-lasting deposits, even on steels that are difficult to weld.
-
Free-forging - FCW 6-G
It is ideally suited to the repair of free-forging parts, thanks to its high resistance to metal-to-metal wear. Its cobalt-based alloy offers excellent heat resistance and dimensional stability. It is ideal for surfaces subject to impact and high temperatures.
