Open die forging Energy applications Complex geometries Higher quality standard Open die forging is a technology to shape the material close to finished size. The material is heated to a specific temperature and the speed and length of the deforming steps are carefully adopted to the reach the high demands on shaping. Hundreds of years of forging experience in Söderfors ensures the correct material handling Scana Steel Söderfors can g q y Scana works actively with certification to meet specific standards. In close co-operation with our clients new challanging executions and new levels of material performance are beeing developed. Quality assurance is a vital force to fullfill the highest requirements. Magnetic powder testing, ultrasonic handling. testing, metallurgical testing are mechanical testing offer various shapes ranging from straight bars to rings and crankshaft shapes. Improved material properties The forging operation deforms the material. In this operation concentrations of impurities and inclusions g, g g g examles of inhouse capabilities to meet the highest demands on forged executions. Machining to final shape Scana can supply premachined as well as finshed machined forgings ready for assembly. are spread evenly in the material and they are locked preventing cracks to propagate. The microstructure improves its strength. Thus the forged shaft will show better mechanical properties than a machined shaft.
