Heat treatment
Heat treatment processes typically involve heating the metal to a specific temperature—where it becomes more malleable—holding it at that temperature for a certain period, and then cooling it down at a controlled rate. The main purpose of heat treating metals is to improve or modify their properties, such as increasing their strength, toughness, and hardness, or to restore properties that may have been altered or lost during previous manufacturing processes.
Cold Forging
Cold forging, also referred to as cold forming or cold working, is a metalworking process in which metal is shaped at or near room temperature, below its recrystallization temperature.
Thread Rolling
Thread rolling is a metal forging process that creates threads on a workpiece by pressing and rolling the workpiece between two dies. These dies contain the thread profile, and when they are applied with force against the surface of the material, they deform and displace it to form the threads.
