As industry leader in ring forgings, our seamless forged rings are produced by a process called ring rolling.
Ring roll production begins with a circular preform of metal that has been pierced (using the open die forging process) to form a “ring blocker”.
This blocker is then reheated to the proper temperature for that grade of material and placed over a mandrel.
The mandrel then moves to a drive roll (king roll) that rotates under pressure to reduce the wall thickness, thereby increasing the diameters (I.D. and O.D.) of the ring forging.
