The metal stock (bar, billet, or rod) is cut into the required size and weight.

The metal is heated in a furnace to a specific forging temperature to make it softer and easier to deform without cracking.

The heated workpiece is placed between forging dies or on an anvil, depending on the forging method.

A hammer or press applies compressive force to shape the metal. The material flows and fills the die cavity, forming the desired shape.

Excess material (called flash) produced during forging is removed using trimming tools.

The forged component may undergo heat treatment processes such as annealing, normalizing, or quenching and tempering to improve its mechanical properties.

Machining, grinding, or surface finishing is performed to achieve the required dimensions and surface quality.

The finished forging is inspected for dimensional accuracy, surface defects, and mechanical properties before use.

The forged component is ready for assembly or delivery.
