FORGINAL industrie’s expertise
All hot forging operations are precisely defined by the manufacturing process defined by the methods department.
The recommended process and production tools are tailored specifically to your specifications.
Here is what takes place in a traditional forging process :
- Drop forging (rough and finish)
- Hot or cold trimming (depending on the size of the part)
- Hyperquenching (for certain types of part, in particular those made of stainless steel)
- Shot-blasting (to remove the scale adhering to the part)

FORGINAL industrie
I started working in forging when I was 18, because there were a lot of forges in the area. At the beginning I didn't know anything about the job. But I do now, having worked in the field for more than 20 years. I've never changed. I joined FORGINAL 15 years ago. I knew people there and they suggested I came. I work to earn a living, like everyone, but I like forging.
