FAQs About Power Generation Forgings

Finding the right power generation forging solution is key for your business. To help you understand why Canton Drop Forge is the right choice, we have answered a few of the most common questions we hear.

What types of materials are used in forged power plant turbine components?

Canton Drop Forge produces power generation forgings using high-performance stainless steel materials such as 403, 410, 17-4, custom 450, and Jethete (M152). These materials are chosen for their resistance to high temperatures, pressure, and corrosion, ensuring that the power plant turbine components maintain durability and performance under extreme operating conditions​.

How long does it take to produce a custom forging order?

Lead times at Canton Drop Forge vary depending on the complexity and size of the custom order. However, the company is committed to meeting client deadlines by leveraging advanced processes like laser scanning and non-destructive testing to streamline production and maintain quality. For more specific information, customers can request a detailed project timeline​.

What testing and quality control measures do you have in place?

Aerospace closed die forging is a sophisticated metalworking technique employed in the aerospace industry for crafting complex and high-performance components. The aerospace forging process entails the careful placement of a metal billet within precisely designed dies. The billet undergoes controlled deformation, resulting in intricately shaped aerospace parts. Aerospace closed die forging produces components with exceptional structural integrity and favorable mechanical characteristics such as strength, hardness and ductility.
