IN-HOUSE SERVICES THAT DELIVER SAVINGS

Drop hammer forging is the process of using impression dies and a heavy hammer to form and compress metal bars/billets into complex shapes.

We supply a range of unmachined and fully machined forgings to many of our customers. By managing this process in-house and minimising sub-contract machining, we can maintain control over cost and quality and deliver savings to our customers.
