Forging of safety parts

FORGINAL Industrie specializes in the forging of safety-critical components—an area where reliability and strength are paramount. The company meets the high demands of some of the most stringent industries, including aerospace, medical, maritime, defense, skydiving, and climbing. With advanced expertise in forging materials such as stainless steel and titanium alloys, FORGINAL Industrie designs robust, lightweight, yet extremely resilient parts perfectly suited for critical environments.

Forging Safety Parts: Advantages and Key Features

The safety components forged by FORGINAL Industrie are engineered to deliver optimal performance—even under the most extreme conditions. Forging, which involves deforming metal under high pressure and temperature, enhances the mechanical properties of the material. This process offers several key benefits for safety parts:

• Single-piece design: Each part is forged from a single piece, eliminating weak points caused by assembly. This monobloc design ensures superior strength and increased durability.
• Improved ductility: Forging enhances the ductility—or the ability of a material to deform under stress—enabling the parts to better withstand impact, wear, and compression without fracturing.
• Slim yet strong: Forging enables the production of finely detailed components with outstanding mechanical strength—ideal for applications where every gram counts, such as aerospace or extreme sports.
• Adapted to extreme conditions: Forged materials like stainless steel and titanium alloys provide resistance to corrosion, high temperatures, and intense pressure—crucial qualities for sectors like skydiving, climbing, or medical.
• High precision: Forged components offer exceptional dimensional accuracy, which—combined with precision machining—ensures reliable and consistent performance.

Controlled Materials: Stainless Steel and Titanium Alloys

Material selection plays a crucial role in the production of safety components. FORGINAL Industrie uses materials renowned for their exceptional properties:

• Stainless steels: Offering superior corrosion resistance and high mechanical stability, these materials are indispensable in environments where reliability and durability are non-negotiable.

Thanks to its expertise in so-called “difficult” materials, FORGINAL Industrie ensures the production of safety parts suited to the most critical applications.

A Rigorous Production Process

FORGINAL Industrie’s production process relies on advanced forging techniques combined with rigorous quality controls at every stage of manufacturing.

• Design and engineering office: Each project begins with a detailed design phase led by our in-house engineering team. In collaboration with the client, engineers define the exact specifications of the component, ensuring full compliance with technical standards and requirements.
• Forging: FORGINAL uses power hammer forging processes to achieve complex shapes and high-precision components. This method ensures a homogeneous structure and optimal mechanical strength.
• Heat treatment and finishing: After forging, components undergo heat treatment to enhance mechanical properties such as hardness and fatigue resistance. Finishing operations—like precision machining and polishing—follow to meet dimensional tolerances and ensure flawless surface quality.

Commitment to Quality

Quality is at the core of FORGINAL Industrie’s mission. The company is certified ISO 9001:2015 and complies with the European Pressure Equipment Directive PED 2014/68/EU. These certifications demonstrate FORGINAL Industrie’s commitment to delivering products that meet the highest standards of safety and performance. Every stage of the manufacturing process undergoes strict inspections to guarantee the reliability and durability of each part.

Applications of Forged Safety Parts

The forged components produced by FORGINAL Industrie are used in a wide range of demanding applications:

• Aerospace: Critical components for control systems and aircraft structures, where lightweight construction and strength are essential.
• Medical: Parts used in implants or surgical instruments, where precision and biocompatibility are crucial.
