die-forging of duplex Germany

...Forgings have a fiber structure similar to the grain in wood, which follows the geometry of the component and significantly contributes to its stability. In contrast, a machined component made from a block (from the 'solid') breaks this fiber structure, thereby compromising stability. The physical properties such as hardness and toughness are also significantly better in a forging than in the...

...Welcome to the blog of KB Schmiedetechnik, a German drop forge specialising in small batch production of closed-die forgings up to 130 kg in unit weight, crafted from virtually all steel grades—carbon steels, high- and low-alloy steels, including AISI 316 and duplex stainless steels, as well as nickel-based superalloys such as Monel®, Incoloy®, Inconel®, and Hastelloy®, along with titanium...

... or cast in dies from gray cast iron, spheroidal graphite, precision casting, aluminum die casting, and zinc die casting for pumps, gears, axles, sea valves, .. The variety of our experiences has a simple background: We do not supply our own products. We always focus on the drawings and requirements of our customers. In more than 55 years of practical work, our focal points have developed...
