Forging / Closed-Die Forging
Closed-Die Forging Services
Closed-die (impression-die) forging shapes heated billets inside a contoured die pair to produce near-net-shape parts in high volumes. Monmet supplies closed-die forgings across a wide range of weights for gears, levers, yokes, flanges and structural fittings.
When Closed-Die Wins
Closed-die delivers tight dimensional repeatability, minimal flash and excellent mechanical properties on repeat production of identical parts. Tooling amortizes over the run, so per-part cost drops against casting or machining from bar.
Typical Products
Spur and bevel gear blanks, crankshafts, connecting rods, U-bolts, flanges and drive-train fittings.
Material Utilization
Closed-die forming places metal only where the part needs it, so far less stock is cut away than when machining from bar. Flash is trimmed, collected and recycled.
