ODM Works forged component division specializes in cold forging and hot forging manufacturing processes.

Forging is a manufacturing process where the metal is hammered, pressed or rolled under high, localized pressure and shaped into high strength parts known as forgings. This metal working method has been in use for centuries and was traditionally deployed in the manufacture of tools, machine parts, weapons, kitchenware and jewelry.

During the forging process, the coarse grain structure of the metal is broken down into finer grains, and a grain structure that is better aligned towards the desired directional strength can be obtained; in addition, gas porosity and low-density/empty spaces may be removed, and cracks sealed during the process. Forging thus produces parts that are much stronger than those produced by any other metal-working process. Forgings are therefore widely used in applications where great strength is required and reliability and human safety are critical.
