Head wrightson was never as clean as this! I remember sitting at the far end of that place on a night shift (maintenance fitter I was) smoking a rolly thinking "hell must be like this"
No . Engines are not like this . Some 3 engine components are made like this . Crack shaft , connecting rod , cam shaft . This process is followed by machining , heat treatment , grinding etc to make these 3 parts . Cylinder block and heads are made by casting process followed by machining .
@@user-cq2it4hc6e Cylinder and Blocks and Heads have complex profiles and geometry and cavities which can not be achieved by forging . These two parts have to cast from different grades of cast iron or aluminum alloy .
The second forging machine looks like it has an unpowered down stroke; gravity free fall, is this correct? I just noticed that the weighted die appears to be suspended underneath the ram / shaft by two very thick rubber belts, is this also correct?
It's a drop-hammer, the tup drops under gravity and is lifted by the belts. Other designs are "double-acting" like the Huta-Zygmunt MPM air hammers that power down.

Really makes a fella appreciate technology.
This is just how i started in the drop forge, the driver was not as easy as he made it seem.
Sounds terrific
seems like a safe place to work
closed dye forging at my place too. Flash produced
did anyone else notice the lizard that keeps poking his head out of the floor grate every time the hammer drops?
Drop forging i think..
Isn't it?
closed die forging on drop hammers
If the hammer drops with no multiple in it? Do the dies touch?
Yes, they are a "kiss-face" design. Usually EN2B material.
Yes.They Are Headed To Prevent Dies From Breaking!
@@delbroncarter5121 Can you explain what 'headed' means in this context?
@@jsmcortina Does 'kiss-face' mean that when the ram is fully extended, the two dies just touch each other?
Fire Is Put Between The Top And Bottom Dies For About An Hour To Heat Them.Then The Full Force Of The Hammer Can Hit. Without Breaking The Dies.
Does anyone know? A company that makes engines in this way individually?
No . Engines are not like this . Some 3 engine components are made like this . Crack shaft , connecting rod , cam shaft . This process is followed by machining , heat treatment , grinding etc to make these 3 parts . Cylinder block and heads are made by casting process followed by machining .
@@RD-ij2sz But I think if the engine block and head were made this way it would be better in terms of durability. Thanks for the clarification

All Engines Have Forged Steel Parts!

HONORGUARD308 At 1:40?
Yeah, that one.
HONORGUARD308 All right, ya it does seem that the die is suspended.
