Forgings offer production economies and material savings. Welded fabrications are more costly in high volume production runs. In fact, fabricated parts are a traditional source of forging conversions as production volume increases. Initial tooling costs for forging can be absorbed by production volume and material savings. Forgings’ production economics lower labor costs, scrap and rework reductions through reduced inspection costs.
