Advantages of Forging Over Casting:
1
Higher production rates
2
Greater material strength in forged cooper parts due to the total absence of porosity. Forging improves the mechanical properties, because of the closeness of the grain flow.
3
The absence of porosity and inclusions also significantly reduce scrap.
4
Forging provides better surface finish over casting
5
Precision tolerances reduce machining operations.
6
Substantial material savings are generated due to the coring process along with the reduction in flash.
7
Longer machine tool life is experienced due to the absence of the inclusions seen in sand casting.
8
The ductility of brass/ aluminum allows for the easier formation of complex components.
9
Many castings can be easily converted to forgings.
