Billet and alloy matched

High-strength hot-forged components for shafts, flanges, drivetrain parts and industrial assemblies. JINGLE reviews alloy, billet size, die strategy and downstream machining before production.
Forged components for automotive, industrial equipment, energy, fluid control and custom OEM programs.
A quick view of the information buyers need before sending a hot forging RFQ. Final values are confirmed against alloy, billet, die, heat treatment and machining requirements.

Review the model, alloy, quantity and inspection scope before confirming the quotation route.
Carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, aluminum and titanium alloys can be reviewed for hot forging. The specified grade, geometry and required properties determine the proposed billet and treatment route.
Hot forging can be a candidate when load paths, grain flow or recurring volume favor a shaped blank rather than machining entirely from stock. Share the model, alloy and demand so tooling, machining stock and inspection requirements can be compared.
Prototype and low-volume routes can be evaluated alongside batch production. Send the drawing, alloy and quantity so die requirements and first-article checkpoints can be confirmed.
Heat-treatment certificates and NDT reports can be included when agreed in the inspection plan. Specify applicable standards, acceptance criteria and required records with the RFQ.
Machining allowance depends on the alloy, forging geometry, treatment condition and finished features. Provide the finished drawing and critical datums so stock can be reviewed before tooling release.
Quotation timing depends on the completeness of the 3D model, drawing, alloy, quantity and inspection requirements. We review those inputs and confirm the quotation schedule rather than promise a fixed turnaround.
Send the model, drawing, alloy and quantity. We will review billet, die, heat treatment, machining stock and inspection before quoting.
