Hot forging machines – including mechanical, hydraulic and electric screw presses in C-frame or straight-side (H-frame) configurations – are used for producing bolts, nuts, flanges, pipe fittings, valve bodies, gear blanks, connecting rods, crankshafts, wheel hubs, axle shafts, steering knuckles, hardware tools, and engineering machinery parts; a complete production line consists of a bar sawing machine / hydraulic billet cutter, induction heating furnace, hot forging manipulator (3‑station or 6‑axis robot), hot forging press, trimming press, optional descaling machine, cooling tower, conveyor belt, and downstream equipment (shot blasting machine, tapping machine for nuts, thread rolling machine for bolts, heat treatment line); unlike a cold heading machine which is suitable for small to medium fasteners (≤ M12) at high speed (300+ pcs/min) with high material utilization, the hot forging machine is designed for larger sizes (M20 and above) or high‑strength parts requiring thermal forming and heat treatment, and is widely used in automotive, engineering machinery, oil & gas, hardware tools, railway and construction industries.
