How long is the service life of forging molds generally?
For low-alloy structural steel forging, the one-time service life of the forging die varies according to the complexity and precision of the shape of the forging. The die forging hammer has a die life of 4,000 to 7,000 pieces. However, the new type of program-controlled full hydraulic die forging hammer, because its energy and program can be set and controlled, the die life has been improved. The die life of screw press is slightly lower than that of mechanical press, and the die life of mechanical press can generally reach 10,000 to 25,000. The service life of connecting rod mold is 15,000 to 25,000, the life of crankshaft mold is 8,500 to 18,000, the life of steering knuckle mold is 6,000 to 14,000, and the life of gear mold is 10,000 to 35,000. . The average life of domestic mechanical press molds is 5,000 to 8,000, while friction press molds have a lower life of 2,000 to 3,500, generally only about 25,000.

How many times can a mold be repaired?
The number of times of use and repair of the mold needs to be determined according to the specific production process. For example, metal molds in casting can be used hundreds to thousands of times, while sand molds can be used an infinite number of times. The forging die needs to be determined according to the complexity of the forged part. For specific details, you can communicate with our technical engineers.

What is the difference between forgings and castings?
The biggest difference between forgings and castings is that forgings are produced when the metal is in a solid-state, while castings require the metal to be heated to a liquid state before production.
