Over the years we have featured a number of large DIY projects here on Geeky Gadgets but never a project like the DIY 40 ton hydraulic forging press created by Karl Metalworks. Check out the video ...

A process to make titanium from rutile sand promises to cut the cost of the lightweight metal and cement the UK's position in the aerospace supply chain A consortium including the Advanced Forming ...

Titanium is strong and light, with the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any metal. But giving it a good balance of strength and ductility is difficult and expensive. That’s why titanium is used ...

Coining is a closed die forging process, in which pressure is applied on the surface of the forging in order to obtain closer tolerances, smoother surfaces, and eliminate draft. Closed die forging is ...

When it comes to turning raw metal alloys into useful things, two processes dominate: casting and forging. Both have their place, but when strength and light weight are priorities, forging is the ...
