Application Of Hot Forging In Agricultural And Forestry Machinery Parts

The agricultural and forestry industries have been mechanizing in almost every aspect. The aim of using machines is to help increase efficiency and productivity. There is a whole range of machinery both for agriculture and forestry. The manufacturing of these machines and their parts have been enhanced using modern hot forging technology.

Forging is a forming technology where compression force is applied on the metallic material against a mould to form the desired shape. In this case, hot forging works on the metallic material that has been heated hence the name. The metal to be formed must be heated to the crystallization temperature so that it can produce plastic deformation before the pressing.

The modern agricultural and forestry machinery parts manufacturer are using advanced hot forging technology. They are using advanced machines that used hydraulic systems to produce the compression force or Friction press machines for hot forging. The machines are designed with a hydraulic system that produces a compression force to form the desired agricultural and forestry machinery parts.

Several factors determine the heating of the material to be forged. One of them is the type of material being used for the construction of the parts. There all kinds of materials used, including aluminum, steel, tungsten carbide, and many others. Note that some metals, such as the tungsten carbide and steel, require a lot of heating to reach the plastic deformation levels.

For instance, hot forged forestry mulcher teeth require a steel body and carbide tip. These are factors you need to consider when choosing hot forged technology for agricultural and forestry machinery parts.

How To Hot Forge Agricultural and Forestry Machinery Parts

The hot forging processes have been improving over the years. With the coming of new technologies, the process has become quite easy and simple. The use of the hydraulic press machines has made the process quite straightforward.

The setting of the hot forging machine is straightforward. It includes the hydraulic press system, press mould, and the die being the three main components. The press system includes the puncher, which focuses the produced force onto the heated materials.

The first step to hot forging agricultural and forestry machinery parts is placing the die is firmly placed inside the press chamber. The die must be of the shape and size of the desired machine part. The second step is placing the heated materials into the press chamber and on top of the mould. The third and last step is pressing the material using the punch to produce the required part.

That’s how simple the process is. But make sure that you have checked the amount of force that’s being applied to the materials. It must be very accurate to produce the expected quality.

Advantages of Hot Forging

Hot forging has been growing popular in the machine parts manufacturing industry because of the numerous benefits it offers. One of the biggest benefits is the parts’ high ductility, which means better deformation features when under stress. Therefore, hot-forged parts can withstand higher stress than cold forged types.

Did you know that hot forging requires less energy to form machine parts than cold forging? Well, that’s true. Because the material is heated to reach its plastic deformation, less force is needed to press and form the required shape. The other advantage of hot forging agricultural and forestry machinery parts is high flexibility in production. Unlike cold forging, hot forging offers a range of configurations to work with.

Another advantage of hot forging agricultural and forestry machinery parts is excellent surface quality. The produced parts’ surface is porosity free. This allows a range of finishing work like polish, painting, or coating as per customers. There are many more other advantages of hot forging.
