Agriculture

Unplanned equipment downtime related to component damage and the corresponding repairs can wreak havoc on both your schedule and your budget. Sectors like the agriculture market require rugged and durable parts to ensure reliable operations. Forged components are an optimal choice to fulfill these needs, helping to extend equipment life and reduce operational costs. The following forged components are common to the agricultural industry:

Off-Highway

The off-highway industry is another market that demands durable, high-strength parts. Equipment for this industry must be able to withstand extreme, fluctuating conditions and harsh environments while offering reliable performance. To meet the rigorous requirements of off-highway applications, manufacturers incorporate a broad spectrum of forged parts, examples of which include:

Hand Tools

To achieve maximum performance in your hand tools, Cornell Forge supplies strong products that possess impact and fatigue resistance for ideal functionality without sacrificing aesthetic appeal. Forged products and tools include:

Marine

All products meant for the marine industry must be corrosion resistant to offer high performance without experiencing degradation. Forged components are applicable for boats and a broad range of other marine projects, and we offer marine forged parts made to order. Typical forged products for marine applications include:

Mining

The mining industry subjects parts and equipment to rigorous use, heavy loads, and challenging environments. Forging is up to the task, however, by generating tough, reliable parts with tight tolerances that ensure safe, proper equipment functionality and the successful handling of weighty objects. Examples of forged parts you might find in mines and mining operations include the following:

Oil

The oil and gas market will expose components and equipment to high pressures and temperatures, leaving some production methods unequal to the task. Forged products, however, offer the durable strength our oil clients need to avoid equipment failure. Forged components and products that the oil market often utilizes are as follows:

Recreational

Parts for recreational vehicles can experience hard use, as RVs and related vehicles carry a lot of weight on their structures and may travel through highly varied environments. The quality and consistency of forged components are essential to ensure that recreational vehicles can hold up under shock and stress. The recreational vehicle industry uses a wide variety of forged parts, including:

Rail

Like trucking, the railway sector of the transportation market helps drive the U.S. economy and transfer goods from one location to another. With trains, there’s the added concern of passenger safety as they’re also a method of mass transport. Rail companies invest in continual improvement, looking to enhance product transportation, the passenger experience, and overall operational safety and efficiency, all of which can’t happen if a train breaks down. Some of the products associated with this heavy-duty industry include:

Firearms & Defense

The need for reliable components is particularly great in the firearms and defense industries. Examples of forged components for these sectors include:

Construction & Forestry

The heavy-duty equipment found in construction and logging sites and material handling plants must continue operating consistently even under rugged, difficult conditions. Forged components are a popular choice for preventing everything from unscheduled downtime to hazardous equipment defects. Both the construction and forestry industries rely on strong forged components like:
