There are several types of forging machines available because each has a unique capability and limitation. Hydraulic presses are versatile, with excellent control and power, making them optimal for precision work and high-volume production. Mechanical presses are ideal where large volumes of forgings are required, but their output is not as precise. Hammer forging machines produce parts with excellent strength but lower precision, whereas screw presses can achieve very high repeatability but have limited capacity and require expensive tooling. Each type of forging machine has specific capabilities and limitations, allowing manufacturers to choose the right one depending on the project's characteristics and their requirements.
