What is the difference between the casting and forging processes of crusher hammers?




Casting is a process from "liquid" to "solid". It is a process of melting metal into liquid after heating, and pouring molten metal into mold vessels to meet the requirements. After cooling, solidification and finishing, the casting is formed into a predetermined shape, size and performance. For more complex parts, casting is a good casting method.


The casting process of the hammer head saves processing costs and shortens production time to a certain extent. It is one of the basic processes in modern manufacturing. Casting can be classified according to the type of mold or the pressure used to fill the mold with liquid molten metal. According to the correct selection of alloys, casting can heat them to the highest temperature. Then higher quality production materials are obtained, making the alloy crusher hammer head have greater strength and wear resistance.

What is forging? The forging hammer head process is mainly a process through the collision of the hammer head and iron. The whole process does not involve heating. The two main parts of forging (forging press), through forging can eliminate the defects such as loose metal produced in the casting process, optimize the organizational structure, maintain the integrity of metal flow, and the mechanical properties of forgings are generally better than those of the same casting material. In related machinery, important parts with high loads and harsh working conditions, in addition to relatively simple rolled plates, profiles or welded parts, also use more forgings.


Forged hammer head has a certain mechanical strength. However, the forging process has certain limitations. There are certain requirements for its size. The forged components cannot be too complicated. Compared with the casting process, the efficiency is too slow.
