Forging market in North America
Forging is a manufacturing process for shaping metals using compressive forces. Cold forging and warm (or hot) forging are the two main forging processes. Forging can be exercised as ferrous (aluminium and titanium) forging and non-ferrous forging. It is carried out through either impression die, open die, or rolled rings. Forged metal components are widely used in the automotive, aerospace, construction, oil and gas, agriculture, shipbuilding, steel, bearing, and power industries.
North America’s demand for forging was valued at USD 11.75 billion in 2014 is expected to reach USD 15.41 billion by 2020, growing at a CAGR of 4.76%. In terms of volume, the North America forging market stood at 23.30 million tons in 2014
