Cost Downs
An important area where AG Fastenings is also able to assist our clients and customers is in
the area of cost downs. This usually involves taking a turned part and converting it to a
forged part with the consequent saving in material (unlike turning, net shape forging
produces no scrap in the form of swarf).
Cold forging also produces a stronger piece part as the grain flow is not broken unlike a
turned part. Finally, production rates of 120 parts, part minute are typical. All these factors
combine to make cold forging a very cost-effective alternative to turned parts.
