Vertical forging is an efficient production technique for manufacturing strong metal parts in larger quantities. This method is applied to solid components and industrial parts such as chassis clamps, ferry rings, ferry eyes, and other technical forged products.

What is vertical forging?

In this forging technique, raw steel is first heated to the correct processing temperature. The material is then shaped into the desired base form within a forging die. Depending on the product, this is achieved using induction heating or gas heating.

This makes this production method particularly suitable for the efficient production of larger series of metal parts with consistent quality and reliable dimensions.

Advantages of this production method

For industrial applications, this technique offers several key advantages. For example:

• cost-efficient production for larger quantities
• high production speed
• consistent product quality
• strong and compact material structure
• suitable for diverse technical applications

Furthermore, this production method is often utilized for series ranging from approximately 1,000 to 100,000 units, depending on the type of part and the application.

Quality and material strength

Material strength is essential for forged parts. The controlled deformation of the steel creates a compact material structure that is more resistant to stress than many alternative production methods.

Consequently, this technique is highly suitable for parts where reliability, load-bearing capacity, and consistent performance are important in daily industrial use.

Applied to industrial forged parts

Woerden-Sales has various parts produced via vertical forging in specialized production facilities in Asia. This technique is applied to, among others:

• chassis clamps
• Ferry rings / Ferry rings
• Open-end and ring wrenches

Moreover, controlled production processes ensure a reliable manufacturing method for technically critical components that must withstand high loads.

Reliable production for industrial applications

For professional applications, reproducible quality and reliable delivery are essential. Therefore, this production technique is suitable for larger volumes without compromising on quality or performance.

Finally, customers can rely on an efficient and scalable production method for a wide range of industrial applications.
