Infrared Temperature Measurement for Forging Applications: Understanding the Process and Preheating Stage
Infrared temperature measurement for forging applications is essential for ensuring consistent results in this manufacturing process, which involves shaping billets using local compressive forces. This is done by using mechanical or hydraulic presses. In a forging plant, billets are preheated in the furnace before being loaded into the forging die to be formed.
A well controlled billet preheat temperature ensures :
- Correct Metallurgical Properties
- Correct Grain Structure and Size
- Prevention of entry of under/overheated billets to the die
- Reduced Maintenance of the Die and the machine
- Automation of the process
- Enhanced life of the Die
- Reduced Heating Cost
