What is a Hydraulic Forging Press?
A basic forging press exerts a force that presses steel, aluminum, or other metal alloys into a shape, determined by the shape of a “forging die.” Forging presses are used for manufacturing everything from gears to automotive wheels. Hydraulic presses are primarily used for large or complex dies and for extrusion. They work via high-pressure fluid produced by hydraulic pumps and are used in forging large airplane components, for example. Find out more…
