Hot forging steel

Hot forging steel production.

The steel forgings produced are mainly used in the industrial, agricultural, automotive and construction machinery sectors. Castal also offers its customers machining operations that do not belong to these categories, ensuring a high level precision.

Our technical department will carry out a feasibility analysis of the product and, if positive, will start the mould engineering process. The use of dedicated software allows for a study and design of the mould capable of respecting tolerances to a hundredth of a mm.
