Application of Forging

Almost all metals and alloys can be forged. The low and medium carbon steels can easily be hot forged , but the high-carbon and alloy steels are more difficult to forge .
Forging is generally carried out on carbon alloy steels, wrought iron, copper-base alloys, alumunium alloys, and magnesium alloys. Stainless steels, nickelbased
super-alloys
, and titanium are forged especially for aerospace uses.

Producing of crank shaft of alloy steel is carried out by forging which  is a good example of part produced by forging.
Forging processes are among the most important manufacturing techniques utilized widely in manufacturing of small tools, rail-road equipments, automobiles and trucks and components of aeroplane industries. These processes are also extensively used in the manufacturing of the parts of tractors, shipbuilding, cycle industries, railroad components, agricultural machinery etc.
