I work in forging industry as source supplier of forging descaling machine which has been widely used in hot forging production lines to clean forge scale generated by induction heating machine.We focus on helping hot forging enterprises to improve forgings surface quality with our high pressure water descaling system.

When you said "... over 1000F, on a good day..." it didn't really make sense if you think about it. But cool video, the glowing ingots made some of the footage look unreal.

[@archerkn2413]

At 4:28 they said over 1000F. The way they need the steel to move, and judging by the color of the steel in the video, 1000F isn't even close to the temps that are being used! The colors I'm seeing are telling me it's no less than 1600F, and at some points up in the 2000F range.

[@thebogsofmordor7356]

That line in the video really stuck out to me too. I even commented some crap about it not making sense.

[@tysentheking]

I did this at 900C so you would be correct. I make nuclear fuel.

[@petercrossley1069]

Narration is full of errors. The counter blow hammer does not hammer “molten metal”.

[@PaulBlacksmith-xr4sy]

Big # 085 at Ladish Company in Cudahy Wisconsin is a 125,000 lb. Counterblow closed-die behemoth, capable of forging ingots of steel and titanium up to 27,000 lbs input weight. I worked on 085 Hammer before I retired in 2017 after almost 30 years as an industrial Union Blacksmith. Fascinating place to work, much of it is Aerospace, Jet Propulsion, Agriculture, Transportation, and National Defense. Hard, hot, heavy, dirty work, but it paid the bills in Union scale, I would do it again if I was a young man once more. Now known as ATI Ladish Forging Cudahy Division. ATI bought Ladish in 2010. So far so good, the fellahs tell me the back orders are strong, and plenty of Overtime is offered. Forged Steel Is The Metal You Can Trust!

It's interesting to compare the working conditions and safety gear with the equally enjoyable Indian and Pakistani metal fabricating channels. Quite the difference seeing this kind of work being done in sandals. Give them a look if you haven't.

They work hard and fast, making everything from truck rims to pans. And those guys cutting up ships are off the hook. They make their acetylene gas on site too.

You missed the Ladish Company in Cudahy Wisconsin... I retired from Ladish in 2016, 120 years old, they are Legendary Forgers of incredible aerospace hardware... You also did not mention Iso-thermal forging, done in a zero oxygen vacuum chamber... Ladish Company has some of the biggest Forge equipment on the planet. No list of big Forgers is complete without a mention of Ladish Company. Otherwise great video. I've worked with most of the machinery shown here, for 30+ years.

"You don't want to get your fingers stuck in that machine" Why is the narration so stupid? There are so many interesting technical details left out because the narrator wants to talk about how he feels, or to make comments he thinks are funny (they are not) but simply use up time. This narrator and whoever writes his material should be fired, then watch the audience numbers rise.

*It looks like you missed mentioning the Ladish Company in Cudahy, Wisconsin...

Additionally, you didn't mention Iso-thermal forging, a process carried out in a zero oxygen vacuum chamber, in which Ladish Company excels. They possess some of the largest Forge equipment on the planet. Any list of prominent forgers would be incomplete without acknowledging the Ladish Company. Nonetheless, it's a great video.

I worked the forging industry for 46 years I never made gears the way that they show here We made them using a ceco gravity drop hammer and a set of open dies. This way looks way to long to make it and get it out the door. And before anyone says anything. Every gears we forged went into a John Deere combine or construction equipment

and also included footage of other powerhammers and presses while talking about "counterblow hammers"

[@markusstewart9298]

Would just standing near those machines for years on end eventually cause health issues? Obviously lung issues would come with working around molten steel, but would there be any form of shockwave or percussive force exerted on the workers? I’m just wondering because I have heard ex military people on podcasts talk about issues from working with and around explosives (breaching charges, Carl Gustovs, etc).

[@Reloadeez]

I think there's an accepted element of risk, similar to nuclear reactor workers lifetime radiation dose. I doubt you'll find any studies on long-term percussive force exposure health risk. Hearing damage is a major risk, my grandfather worked around power hammers for years. At the time they didn't fully understand the risk to hearing or have protection. His hearing is awful now.

[@Skampi98]

Due to the infrared radiation emitted by the hot metal they might develop a firestar in their live. It's a clouding of the Cornea and impairs your vision.
