WALKSON'S Experience with Close-die Forging Parts

Detailed Experience with Close-Die Forging Parts

1. Years of Expertise in Close-Die Forging

  • Experience in Close-Die Forging: Walkson has been specializing in close-die forging for over 15 years. We have worked with a wide range of industries, including construction machinery, new energy, oil & gas, wind power and heavy machinery, providing precision-forged components that meet exacting industry standards.

  • Complexity of Orders: Over the years, we have successfully completed orders ranging from small batches to large-scale production runs of highly intricate and large parts. Our expertise covers both simple and complex geometries, as well as high-strength and heat-resistant alloys such 1045,1080, 4140 Steel, 4340 Steel, 8620 Steel, 17-4 PH Stainless Steel, Ti-6Al-4V, Ti-5Al-2.5Sn etc.

2. Industry Certifications and Compliance

  • Quality Certifications: We are certified under ISO 9001/ISO 14001 and other relevant standards, ensuring that all of our forging processes adhere to the highest quality management and environmental standards. Additionally, we comply with industry-specific certifications, e.g. IATF 16949.

  • Material  Traceability: Our materials are sourced from certified suppliers, and  we provide full traceability with certification reports, including chemical composition and mechanical property testing.

3. Equipment and Technology

  • Advanced Forging Technology: Our facility is equipped with state-of-the-art forging presses and heat treatment furnaces capable of producing parts up to 800 Kg. We utilize automated forging presses, CNC machines, and robotics to ensure precise control over every stage of production.

  • Simulation and Engineering Support: We use advanced simulation software to optimize the design and production processes, ensuring the feasibility and performance of the part before manufacturing begins. We also provide in-house engineering support, including CAD modeling and tool design, to facilitate quick adjustments and reduce lead times.

4. High-Volume and Complex Forging Orders

  • Large Production Capabilities: We regularly handle large-volume orders, with production capacities of up to 100,000 tons per year. For example, we recently completed a 20,000-unit order of custom forged parts for a planetary reducer parts client, requiring precise adherence to complex tolerances.

  • Batch and Mass Production: We can manage both batch and mass production needs. Our flexible production lines allow us to handle varying order sizes without compromising on quality or delivery schedules.

5. Proven Track Record in Various Industries

  • Construction Machinery Industry: We have a long history of producing critical components for the Construction Machinery industry, including Crankshafts, Connecting Rods, Gear Components, Axle Shafts, Wheel Hubs , Hydraulic Cylinder Rods, Lift Arms etc. which are rigorously tested for performance under extreme conditions.

  • Energy & Heavy Machinery: We provide durable and high-strength forging parts for energy, oil & gas, and heavy machinery applications. Our parts are used in critical applications such as turbines, valves, pumps, and pressure vessels, requiring resistance to extreme temperatures and pressures.

6. Customer-Focused Service and Support

  • Client Collaboration: We work closely with our clients throughout the design,      prototyping, and production phases to ensure that every part meets or exceeds their specifications. This collaborative approach helps minimize revisions and ensures smooth delivery.

  • Aftermarket Support: We offer full post-production support, including inspection      reports, certifications, and after-sales service. In the unlikely event of      any issues, we are committed to resolving them promptly with minimal      disruption.

7. Recent Projects and Case Studies

  • Case Study - Construction Machinery  Components: We recently completed a high-volume order for DANA manufacturing planetary reducer parts for their new vehicle model. The project involved producing over 6,000 units within 3 months maintaining 100% quality compliance and on-time delivery.

8. Successful Partnerships with Global Clients

  • International Reach: Our client base includes major companies from Europe, the US, the Middle East, etc. We have successfully delivered products to clients  in these regions, navigating complex logistics, international regulations, and customs processes.

  • Long-term Relationships: Many of our clients, including DANA, LIEBHERR, BONFIGLIOLI etc have partnered with us for over 10 years due to our consistency, quality, and ability to deliver on time.

9. Quality Control and Inspection Process

  • In-House Inspection: Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control checks, including dimensional inspections, mechanical testing, and non-destructive testing (e.g., ultrasonic testing, X-ray, etc.), to ensure that the parts meet your specifications.

  • Third-Party Inspections: We also collaborate with third-party inspection agencies, if required, to further validate the quality and compliance of our products before shipment.
