In the forging process, metal is shaped by pressing, pounding, or squeezing under very high pressure, to form parts called forgings.  Forging processes include cold forging or heading, impression or closed die, open die, and seamless rolled ring

Ferrous metals and alloys are based on iron and include carbon steels, alloy steels, stainless steels, cast iron, cast steel, maraging steel, and specialty or proprietary iron-based alloys. 

Metal working lubricants, coolants and fluids are specialized coatings and carriers for metal forming, metal cutting, lapping, polishing, and grinding applications

Nonferrous metals and alloys are not based on iron and include alloys of aluminum, copper, titanium, zinc, nickel, cobalt, tungsten, precious metals, refractory metals

Powder metal services use heat and pressure to form precision parts and shapes from ferrous and nonferrous metals

Metal rod and bar stock are metals and alloys in the form of round bars or rod, square bars, rectangular or flat bars, hexagons, and other bar stock shapes

Reactive and refractory metals include tungsten, molybdenum, niobium, tantalum, chromium, hafnium, zirconium, and titanium. Reactive metals oxide rapidly and form a stable oxide. Refractory metals and alloys have melting points above ~ 1750° C (~ 3200 F

Aluminum and aluminum alloys are lightweight, non-ferrous metals with good corrosion resistance, ductility and strength

Stamping services use punches and dies to create three-dimensional parts and add surface definition such as lettering to flat-sheet materials.

Copper, brass and bronze alloys are non-ferrous metals with excellent electrical and thermal conductivity as well as good corrosion resistance, ductility and strength

Metal billets, slabs and blooms are large, massive blocks or rounds that are produced from a primary metal or during a recycling process

Titanium and titanium alloys are non-ferrous metals with excellent corrosion resistance, fatigue properties, and a high strength-to-weight ratio

Zinc and zinc alloys are non-ferrous alloys that are used widely in the production of die cast components.

Hot forming machines form metal that has been preheated. Cold forming machines form metal that has not been preheated

Stainless steel alloys are austenitic, ferritic, martensitic, precipitation hardened (PH), and duplex metal materials that are available in a wide variety of grades, shapes, and sizes
