DIES & TOOLING

Tooling Starts With Geometry

Die concepts are prepared around the approved component form, parting direction, material flow, machining allowance and downstream inspection needs. Tooling details remain project specific.

FLANGE FORGING · PROCESS CONCEPT

One Billet.
Two Flange Sizes.

Form the larger flange, then use its pierced centre material to form a smaller flange.

FAQ

Before Your
Forging Review

A clear drawing and agreed requirements are the starting point for a useful quotation.

What should I send for a hot-die forging review?

Please send the drawing, material requirement, quantity, applicable standard, machining allowance expectations and inspection requirements available for the project.

Can NOKX review non-standard forged components?

Yes. Non-standard geometry is reviewed against the approved drawing and project requirements before tooling and machine selection are confirmed.

How are dies selected for a new component?

The review considers component geometry, material flow, parting direction, machining allowance and the production quantity. The final tooling arrangement is confirmed for the project.

What inspection requirements should I include?

Include the applicable product standard, dimensions and tolerances, material documentation and any specified testing or reporting requirements. The inspection scope is agreed during project review.
