  • Quoting Testing | Scot Forge

    Mechanical & Nondestructive Testing SCOT FORGE TESTING CAPABILITIES Ensuring Forgings Meets Order & Specification Requirements Nondestructive testing processes are examinations that don't destroy the part nor compromise its soundness, making it a cost-effective testing option for forgings. From time-to-time, however, more information is needed, requiring destructive testing. These tests do destroy a piece of the forging but provide more data and yield details that are easier to interpret. FORGING EXPERTS Let us supplement your team and help you determine what the best way to go about testing your forging. Our technically trained sales team can help you find ways to incorporate your test pieces into the original forging saving you material costs. Being well versed in most forging specifications, we also help you avoid missing NDT processes to keep your project on track and your shop turning chips.

  • Marine Propulsion | Scot Forge

    FORGINGS FOR MARINE PROPULSION Marine Propulsion Forgings For: Superyachts, Cruise Ships, Submarines, Naval Ships & Patrol Vessels At Scot Forge, we provide marine shaft forgings, propeller shaft forgings and forgings for many other propulsion shaft parts to meet these standards. We even offer the certifications that keep your project propelled toward success - including ABS*, Lloyd's Register and DNV-GL . With the long trips and large loads that seafaring vessels undergo, there is an increased need for marine shafts to produce more power and even do so with reduced noise. This demand has led to the design and manufacturing of more efficient propulsion shafts. Our team is well versed in acting as an extension of your team to review blueprints and materials to ensure flow-down requirements are met. *Scot Forge pricing includes all ABS surveys and certification fees MARINE & ABS FORGING CONSULTATIONS SHIPBUILDING Marine Shaft Forgings Marine Propulsion Shafts/Bars A propulsion shaft is a part of a system that generates thrust for a boat, ship or barge, allowing them to move through the water, also known as marine propulsion. Marine propulsion uses a thrust block, located at the forward end of the main shaft, with the shaft line that incorporates all the components to move the vessel. These components include the propulsion shaft, which is used in conjunction with the tail shaft, intermediate shaft, thrust shaft, flange coupling, gearbox, marine engine components, propeller shaft, propeller and bearings that hold the shaft's alignment. Shafts For Marine Applications: Propeller, tail and drive shafts Rudder stock, upper vertical, lower vertical shafts and pintle pins Line, intermediate, main and stub shafts Controllable and variable pitch shafts Flanged torque shafts Input shafts Marine shafts are subjected to many loading types during use, including torque, bending, axle thrust and transverse load. In addition to load stress, weather and sea conditions create corrosion and wear and tear, reducing the propulsion shaft's lifetime. All of these reasons are why the requirements are so severe for these types of forgings; many "simple" parts play a critical role in not only performance but also crew safety, which is why finding a reliable partner for manufacturing these critical parts is essential. Forging Experience & Capability: Ship, Submarine & Boat Shaft Forgings At Scot Forge, we know working to regulations for marine applications costs time and money. We can offer you a seasoned partner who comprehends the different processes to meet safety requirements and can help minimize this cost, while mitigating the risk of not meeting requirements. We have extensive experience forging propeller shafts in many diameters exceeding lengths of 75 feet (22-meter shafts), dependent on the application and overall dimensions required. We supply marine propulsion components for superyachts, cruise ships, submarines, naval ships and patrol vessels. We commonly produce shafts using C45, 34CrNiMo6, Stainless Steel , Inconel and can even create custom material to meet specifications - in forged surface, rough machined and fully machined finishes, if needed. Reasons To Choose Scot Forge No Hidden, Pass-Through Fees ABS, DNV-GL and Lloyd's Register Approved Our long-standing relationships with third-party agencies ensure your certification is complete, accurate and on time. Due to years of experience working directly with ABS, our knowledge and understanding of the industry's specifications are unmatched. Certification requirements beyond ISO: 9001:2015 must be specified in your contract. Vast Materials Inventory We maintain an extensive inventory of ferrous and non-ferrous materials including 17-4 stainless tail shafting grades, and nitronic, super duplex, and super austenitic grades such as Ferralium® 225, Hiduron® 191, and UNS S31254. From vacuum degassed air melt to ESR or VAR cleanliness levels, our forgings are supplied using the highest-quality material available. This ready inventory eliminates many of the delays associated with order processing, allowing for shorter lead times and quick reaction to market changes Fast Delivery and Breakdown Services No matter the grade of material or shape and size of the part, our facilities are designed to support both single-piece and high-volume manufacturing. Utilizing our vast inventory of loose tooling and torch cut capabilities, we are able to reduce stock, which improves mechanical capabilities, lowers cost and limits additional machining. Knowledgeable Sales Engineers With a dedicated account manager for each customer, you know who to contact when in need of a fast turnaround on a quote. Our technically trained staff, backed by our metallurgical engineers and forging experts, can provide you with the support you need to get your ship back in service. Questions?
