Forging is manufacturing method wherever metal is pressed, pounded or squeezed under great pressure into high strength elements called forgings. The method is often (but not always) performed hot by preheating the metal to the desired temperature before it is worked. it is necessary to notice that the forging process is entirely totally different from the casting (or foundry) process, as the metal used to make forged parts is never melted and poured (as within the casting process).
The forging process will produce parts that are stronger than those manufactured by the other shaping method. This is often why forgings are nearly always used wherever dependability and human safety are essential. However you will rarely see forgings as they are normally component parts contained within assembled things such as airplanes, cars, tractors, ships, oil drilling instrumentation, engines, missiles and all forms of capital equipment.
