Forging Defects

The common forging defects include laps and cracks from overlapping material or improper forging technique, incomplete forgings from inadequate material or flow, mismatched pieces from misaligned dies, scale pits from squeezed-in scales, burnt metal from improper heating, internal cracks from heavy hammer blows on improperly prepared material, and disrupted fiber flow from too rapid plastic flow. These defects arise from issues with the raw material, heating process, die design, or forging practice.

The common forging defects can be traced to defects in raw material, improper heating of material, faulty design of dies

and improper forging practice. Most common defects present in forgings are: 1. Laps and Cracks at corners or surfaces lap is caused due to following over of a layer of material over another surface. These defects are caused by improper forging and faulty die design. 2. Incomplete forging either due to less material or inadequate or improper flow of material. 3. Mismatched forging due to improperly aligned die halves. 4. Scale pitsdue to squeezing of scales into the metal surface during hammering action. 5. Burnt or overheated metal due to improper heating. 6. Internal cracks in the forging which are caused by use of heavy hammer blows and improperly heated and soaked material. 7. Fibre flow lines disruption due to very rapid plastic flow of metal.
