This article is about the metalworking process. For the hearth used in that process, see forge. For counterfeiting, see forgery.

Forging is a manufacturing process involving the shaping of metal using localized compressive forces.

The blows are delivered with a hammer (often a power hammer) or a die. Forging is often classified

according to the temperature at which it is performed: cold forging (a type of cold working), warm forging,

or hot forging (a type of hot working). For the latter two, the metal is heated, usually in a forge. Forged

parts can range in weight from less than a kilogram to hundreds of metric tons.

Forging has been done by smiths for millennia; the traditional products were kitchenware, hardware, hand tools, edged weapons, and jewellery.

Since the Industrial Revolution, forged parts are widely used in mechanisms and machines wherever a

component requires high strength; such forgings usually require further processing (such as machining)

to achieve a finished part. Today, forging is a major worldwide industry.

Company Introduction:
GSC is one of the world leaders in the production of industrial counterweights for forklift,lifting and earth
 
moving equipment. Although the majority of the production is dedicated to the manufacture of
 
counterweights, we also produce castings for industrial machinery, aluminum smelting, oil field pumps and
fire hydrants. We also produce water works fittings, municipal street castings (grates, frames, and
 
manhole covers),an
