Impression Die Forgings (also known as closed-die forgings) are a type of forging process where metal is placed between two dies that contain a precept profile (impression) of the desired part shape. When the dies come together, they enclose the metal completely or partially, forcing it to flow into the impression and take on the shape of the die cavity under high pressure. Key Features:- Die Design: Each die has a mirror image of half the part shape. When closed, the dies form a complete mold around the workpiece. Material Flow: Excess material may escape as “flash,” which is later trimmed off. This flash helps fill the die cavity completely by creating resistance. Precision: Produces complex shapes with good dimensional accuracy and repeatability. Strength: High strength due to grain flow aligning with the part shape during deformation. Materials Used: Common materials include carbon steels, alloy steels, aluminum, titanium, and stainless steel.
