Forging can be used to apply pressure to the metal blank to produce plastic deformation and change its mechanical properties. Loose metal can be eliminated by forging. The holes improve the mechanical properties of the forgings. Forgings have the following uses:

① General industrial forgings refer to civil industries such as machine tool manufacturing, agricultural machinery, agricultural tool manufacturing and bearing industry.

② Forgings for hydro-generator, such as main shaft and intermediate shaft.

③ Forgings for thermal power station, such as rotor, impeller, main shaft of retaining ring, etc.

④ Metallurgical machinery, such as cold roll, hot roll and herrings gear shaft.

⑤ Forgings for pressure vessels, such as cylinder, kettle ring flange and head, etc.

⑥ Marine forgings, such as crankshaft, tail shaft, rudder stock, thrust shaft and intermediate shaft.

⑦ Forging machinery and equipment, such as hammer head, hammer rod, hydraulic press column, cylinder, axle pressing machine pillar and cylinder, etc.

The module forgings, mainly hot forging hammer forging die.

⑨ Forgings for the automobile industry, such as left and right steering knuckles, front beams, couplers, etc. According to statistics, in automobiles, forgings account for 80% of their quality.

⑩ Forgings for locomotives, such as axles, wheels, leaf springs, crankshafts of locomotives, etc. According to statistics, forged parts account for 60% of the quality of locomotives.

Military forgings, such as gun barrel, door body, bolt bracket and traction ring, according to statistics, in the tank, forgings accounted for 65% of its quality.
