Forging Technologies

Advanced Technology for a Superior Gear Forging

Flashless Forging
Flashless forging technology is the standard at Eaton. In fact, more than 80 percent of all products forged by Eaton utilize this advanced technology.

With flashless forging, you'll benefit with:

• Less raw material
• Less cost
• 0 degree draft on the O.D.
• Tighter tolerances
• Eliminated balance and interrupted cuts

Net and Near-Net
Net and Near-Net technology is the perfect process for cut-tooth gear manufacturing. You'll use less raw material, reduce your finishing operations and reduce your shipping costs. Near-Net manufacturing utilizes a hot-forged process for a smooth finish.

Advancing Forging for Tomorrow's Needs
In addition to flashless, net and near-net forging, we are also developing net and near-net gear tooth forgings.
