Cold heading process is a common process for the manufacture of bolts, screws, pins, rivets and other fastener heads, and many times the head we talk about is actually a kind of cold heading. Cold heading is a forging method using a die to compress the metal bar at room temperature.
In the field of fastener manufacturing, the cold heading process is widely used because of the following characteristics:
1. Can be carried out at room temperature, without heating metal materials.
2. Can reduce or replace cutting processing, improve material utilization.
3. Suitable for all kinds of bolts and nuts forming, reliable performance, high efficiency and stable quality.
4. Cold heading machine can achieve continuous, multi-station, automatic production, simple operation, suitable for mass production.
In general, the cold heading process can improve productivity, ensure fastener quality, reduce material loss, reduce production costs, and is more and more widely used in the production of standard fasteners.
