Scot Forge, a leader in open die and rolled ring forging, announces its ability to produce uniquely shaped forged torch cut parts in virtually unlimited configurations. These parts are an improvement over torch cut plate or castings, since they first undergo open die forging, which provides sound centers and directional grain flow to ensure higher part integrity, and subsequently undergo contour torch cutting. This forged/torch cut combination process also provides better part reliability, greater utility of material due to lower starting weight, and savings in material and labor costs.

Scot Forge's ability to combine the forging process with in-house torch cutting, sawing, and machining techniques makes them a single-source solution for unusual shaped parts which otherwise must often be produced by more than one supplier. By producing custom forgings in close-to-finish sizes with subsequent contour torch cutting, Scot Forge provides cost efficiencies while ensuring exceptional part strength.

Scot Forge has complete CNC torch cutting capabilities including pre- and post-heating processes for cutting accuracy and relieving stresses. A diverse variety of carbon and alloy materials can be used to produce the parts to 24" thick. Examples of forged and torch cut parts include eye bolts, connecting rods, hydraulic pistons, clevis pins, hubs, joints, and rotor arms.
