DROP THE UNIT COST

When does it make sense to consider cold pressing instead of turning? Starting from an annual production quantity of about 100,000 pieces, cold forging becomes an economical alternative to turning. Depending on tolerance and geometrics, it is particularly the level of machining required that influences cost effectiveness. A further interesting area of application of cold forged parts is the preparation of press blanks. In particular with complex geometries such as eccentricities or cogging, the alternative production method of cold pressing should be taken into account.

• Cost reduction due to reduced material usage
• Fewer production steps to achieve complex geometrics
