ROTARY FORGING
Rotary Forging is a state-of-the-art process technology designed to efficiently forge round (axis symmetric) shapes, such as those used in the wheel industry for multi-piece wheel centers.
Process:
  • AMT 's engineers design forging configuration
  • Unlike a conventional forging process where material is compressed to shape between two stationary "closed dies," AMT's rotary forge press works the billet stock between two synchronized rotary dies, skewed five degrees from parallel. This allows for compression in a concentrated area and thus affords a more efficient method of metal deformation while producing superior mechanical properties.

Benefits:

  • Rapid deformation results in short cycle times
  • High material utilization
  • Cost-effective tooling
  • Superior mechanical working yields excellent mechanical properties
