Cold forging involves the use of highly sophisticated computer-controlled machines that
forge metal parts from round wire feedstock using exceptionally high pressure. The results
are a very precise end product (tolerances of 0.0005 inches), virtually no raw material wastage,
and high volume production capability. Up to 300 parts can be produced in one minute. |
