The forging robot is automatically controlled by advanced computers and programs. It can completely replace human labor and complete the dangerous, simple repetitive and labor-intensive tasks such as continuous feeding, flipping and discharging in the forging production process. At the same time, it can effectively reduce labor intensity and risks, improve the degree of production automation and increase production efficiency.

Based on our many years of experience in serving the forging industry, we have summarized the following necessary conditions for conducting automation transformation in forging.
1. High accuracy in material cutting
2. The shape of the forgings is simple, making them easy for the robotic arm to grasp. Even complex forgings can be produced on an automated production line. However, the complex structure makes it difficult for the metal to fill the entire mold cavity, and the forging process is somewhat challenging.
3. The manual forging process for the forgings is already quite mature. This makes it possible to automate the forging equipment and reduce the waste rate.
4. The mold life is sufficiently long. During the forging process, since replacing the mold once would take a considerable amount of time and affect production efficiency, it is necessary to ensure that all molds on the same production line have the same lifespan. One set of molds can support one production shift. Based on the actual production situation of the forging users, it is approximately 3,000 to 5,000 forgings.
