Open-Die Forging
Open-die forging deforms metal between flat or shaped dies without fully enclosing it, ideal for large and custom pieces. Huaxiao delivers open-die forging as part of our ISO 9001:2015 certified Forging capabilities — from rapid prototyping to high-volume production, with full dimensional inspection and material certification on every order.

What Is Open-Die Forging?
Open-Die Forging shapes metal by compressive force under heat, aligning the grain flow for strength that machining from solid stock cannot match. Huaxiao’s Open-Die Forging produces near-net shapes from carbon, alloy and stainless steels.
Forged parts resist fatigue and impact far better than cast or machined equivalents, making them ideal for load-bearing and safety-critical components. We follow forging with heat treatment, machining and inspection.
