Forged metal parts are essential for ensuring strength, durability, and performance in critical applications.
That is why aligning yourself with a manufacturing company that can deliver components that meet stringent industry standards while remaining adaptable to custom specifications is critical for success.
So, if you are looking for a company that can provide just that, keep on reading.
We will break down the full range of forging services Bunty offers, the various materials we work with, and the high-quality finishes we make available for forged parts.
Additionally, we’ll go over our quality assurance practices and explain why we are the most trusted partner for businesses seeking custom metal forging solutions.
Bunty offers a diverse range of forging services that meet the unique demands of our clients.
Below are some examples of the primary forging services we provide.
Closed die forging, also known as impression die forging, is ideal for creating complex and detailed metal parts.
During this process, metal is placed between two die halves that contain a pre-cut impression of the part’s shape.
When compressed, the metal fills the cavity, resulting in a highly accurate and detailed component.
This method is best suited for producing high-strength parts with tight tolerances, making it ideal for industries such as aerospace, automotive, and heavy equipment manufacturing.
Cold forging involves shaping metal at or near room temperature, and the process provides excellent dimensional accuracy and surface finish.
It is typically used to produce smaller, precise components that require a high degree of strength and durability.
This process is ideal for applications that demand parts with superior surface finish and structural integrity, like fasteners, fittings, and other small-scale components.
We also specialize in custom metal forging services that allow clients to create parts tailored to their specific needs.
From prototyping new designs to selecting the right material, we work closely with clients to ensure their product meets all functional and operational requirements.
Our expertise in custom metal forging enables us to produce custom components in various sizes, shapes, and materials.
This means we can accommodate everything from high-volume production runs to one-off specialty parts.
Additionally, we offer reverse engineering services through dimensional inspection, which gives us the unique ability to replicate and modify existing components.
Reverse engineering is especially useful when replacement parts are no longer available, or if you need to improve or customize a component’s design.
With the above forging services, our clients are guaranteed the highest quality forged parts that meet their exact specifications, along with the flexibility and expertise needed to bring their custom designs to life.
Selecting the right manufacturing material is crucial for producing high-quality forged parts.
That is why we work with a wide variety of metals and alloys, each offering unique characteristics for specific applications.
Some of the materials we commonly use in our forging processes include:
| Steel | We work with carbon steel (for heavy-duty applications), stainless steel (well-suited for industries such as medical, food processing, and marine environments), and alloy steel (for high-stress applications where strength and resistance to wear are key). |
| Aluminum | Aluminum is valued for its lightweight properties and excellent corrosion resistance and used in aerospace, automotive, and marine industries. |
| Magnesium | Magnesium’s strength-to-weight ratio makes it especially useful in the aerospace and automotive industries, where minimizing weight can lead to enhanced performance and fuel savings. |
| Brass and Copper Alloys | Brass, with its electrical conductivity, is often forged into electrical connectors and fittings, while copper’s thermal properties make it ideal for heat exchangers, electronic components, and HVAC systems. |
| Titanium | Titanium is ideal for demanding applications in aerospace, medical, and defense industries. |
| Inconel | Inconel is a high-performance nickel-chromium alloy that excels in high temperatures and corrosive conditions, making it ideal for applications such as turbine blades, heat exchangers, and nuclear reactors. |
| Nickel Alloys | Nickel alloys provide the strength and durability needed for applications like gas turbines, valves, and heat exchangers. |
As can be seen from the above list, we use a wide variety of metals and alloys to forge custom metal parts for our clients.
This versatility allows us to meet the specific performance and durability requirements of different industries and applications.
Selection of the right surface treatments and finishes can greatly enhance the durability, performance, and appearance of custom metal components.
Depending on the material chosen and its intended use, we offer a variety of finishing options that complement our forging services.
These include:
| CNC Machining | Refines the forged part by adding detailed features to the surface of the forged metal, making it ideal for creating complex shapes and achieving high levels of accuracy. |
| CNC Milling | A type of CNC machining that involves using rotating cutting tools to remove material from the forged part, making it particularly useful for creating flat surfaces, slots, and intricate details. |
| Heat Treating | Utilized to improve the strength, hardness, and toughness of forged parts, which is accomplished through controlled heating and cooling. |
| Surface Coatings | Coatings such as anodizing, plating, and galvanizing can be applied to metals like aluminum, steel, and titanium to improve their longevity and appearance. |
| Hardening | Through various hardening techniques like case hardening and induction hardening, we can make the surface harder and more resistant to wear and deformation. |
| Chemical Treatments (Nitriding and Carburizing) | Nitriding increases the hardness and wear resistance of a metal by introducing nitrogen into the surface layer of the metal. Carburizing accomplishes the same objective by adding carbon to the surface, which is then further hardened through heat treatment. |
| Powder Coating | The technique involves applying a dry powder to the surface of the forged part, which is then cured under heat to form a strong, protective layer. |
