Cold Extrusion Process for Steel Cold extrusion of metals is one of the most important manufacturing processes of today and effectively involves forcing the material through a die at room temperature for creating a continuous product of consistent cross-section. Cold extrusion is so called since the billet / slug or preform enters the extrusion die …
Read MoreMetal Forming and Metal Working Processes Metal working consists of deformation processes in which a metal billet or blank is shaped by tools or dies. In metal working, an initially simple work-piece (e.g., a billet or a blanked sheet) is plastically deformed between tools (or dies) to get the desired final configuration. The design and …
Read MoreCold Heading Process Cold heading is a forming process of increasing the cross-sectional area of a blank, which is carried out at room temperature, and at one or more points along its length. The material flow over the length where the cross-sectional area increases and the length decreases. It is identical to conventional upsetting. Along …
