Forged Gear Manufacturing Process

Every forged gear component follows a controlled manufacturing process to achieve consistent mechanical properties, dimensional accuracy and long-term reliability.

1. Material Verification

Raw materials are inspected and verified before production begins.

2. Hot Forging

Forging refines the internal grain structure and improves mechanical properties.

3. Heat Treatment

Material properties are optimized according to application requirements.

4. Rough Machining

Excess material is removed while maintaining process allowances.

5. Gear Hobbing or Gear Shaping

Gear teeth are generated according to specified geometry.

6. Gear Grinding

Critical gear surfaces are finished to improve accuracy and surface quality.

7. Precision CNC Machining

Final machining ensures dimensional compliance and assembly fit.

8. Inspection and Testing

Dimensional, material, and non-destructive inspections are performed before shipment.
