Difference between casting flange and forging flange
2024-09-03
Casting flange Casting flange, blank shape and size accuracy, small processing, low cost, but there are casting defects (porosity. Cracks. Inclusions); casting internal organization streamline is poor (if it is cutting parts, streamline is poor); forging flange is generally lower than casting flange, low carbon content, not easy to rust. Forging streamline good, dense organization, mechanical properties better than casting flange; if the forging process is not appropriate, the grain will be large or uneven, there will be hardening cracks, forging cost is higher than casting flange. Forgings can withstand higher shear and tensile forces than castings. The advantages of castings are complex shape, low cost; uniform internal organization, no casting holes, inclusions and other harmful defects; casting flanges and forging flanges, such as centrifugal flanges, belong to one of the casting flanges. &nb...
