Cold Forging
Cold forging refers to a process in which the billets are not heated prior to a metal forming operation, but are forged starting at room temperature. As no shrinkage or scale formation occurs, cold forged parts demonstrate greater geometrical and dimensional accuracy than comparable hot forged parts. However, the choice of materials which can be used and the geometries which can be generated is not as wide as with hot forging. Cold forging is thus ideal for producing transmission shafts with minimum machining allowances.
