Forging of railroad axles
How to save energy and time
With our SMX hydraulic radial forging machine, you can forge up to three axles from a single ingot in just one heat. This means no process interruption for intermediate heating. That not only boosts productivity, but also cuts energy consumption.
Benefits
- Single, double, or multiple axles forged from one ingot in just a single heat
- High productivity as a result of short cycle times and large height reductions per pass
- Through-forging right to the ingot core for a homogeneous microstructure over the entire cross-section
