Forging Process:
Forging at CNV Engineering is an essential manufacturing process particularly used in high-volume production areas such as the pump segment and automotive industries. Our forging process involves shaping metal under high temperatures using compressive forces, which significantly enhances the metal’s strength and durability. This method is well-suited for parts that require robustness and endurance, making it a favored choice in these industries.
Key Advantages of Forging:
Superior Strength and Durability: Forging refines the metal’s grain structure, resulting in increased strength and resistance to wear and tear.
High-Volume Production Suitability: Especially beneficial for industries like automotive and pumps where large quantities of durable components are required.
Material Efficiency: The process is efficient in terms of material usage, making it cost-effective for large-scale production.
Investment Casting Process:
Investment casting, or precision casting, is known for its ability to produce components with high accuracy, intricate detail, and a smooth surface finish. This process involves creating a wax pattern, forming a ceramic mold around it, and then casting the metal into this mold. It’s particularly advantageous for complex shapes where precision is paramount.
Key Advantages of Investment Casting:
Precision and Complexity: Capable of producing highly intricate and detailed components.
Smooth Surface Finish: Typically requires less machining post-casting due to the high-quality surface finish.
Versatile Material Compatibility: Suitable for a wide range of metals, including stainless steel and aluminum alloys.
Forging services are particularly beneficial for the automotive and pump manufacturing sectors, where high-volume production of durable parts is essential.This can act as a good replacement of raw material for small turned parts which are formed from bars thereby reducing material wastage.
The forging process improves the metal’s mechanical properties by refining its grain structure, enhancing strength and resistance to impact.
