Services & Quality

Services

Precision and quality were our trademarks 100 years ago and will remain so in the future. Modern applications have become more complex and the demands on quality and production speed have increased significantly. Understanding complex tasks and manufacturing intricately constructed parts requires flexibility in thought and action. An attentive ear for the wishes and requirements of our customers is also a matter of course for us.

We produce solid formed parts as drop forgings from steel on various presses. We cover the entire value chain: from CAD design, tool production, material separation, forging, heat treatment and finishing to the mechanical processing of the individual forged parts.

Precision and quality as a trademark.

Design/toolmaking

Extensive technical know-how and many years of industry experience make us your powerful partner in the planning, development and design of forming tools. Our modern CAD and simulation systems offer numerous possibilities for the production of tools and devices.

We are happy to advise and support you – especially in the planning of new developments.

Drop forgings

BEW manufactures drop forgings from steel on 5 press lines in the following weight and dimension ranges:

Press force Weight Dimensions
10.000 kN up to 4 kg up to Ø 120 mm
16.000 kN up to 9 kg up to Ø 155 mm
30.000 kN up to 32 kg up to Ø 215 mm
50.000 kN up to 35 kg up to Ø 290 mm

Drop forgings

Heat treatment

Heat treatment

We carry out all of the following heat treatments of forged parts in-house.

  • Quenching and tempering
  • Isothermal annealing
  • Stress relief annealing
  • Soft annealing
  • Normalizing
  • Solution annealing
  • B4 annealing from the forging heat
  • +P Precipitation hardening (formerly BY treatment)

Mechanical processing

We take on the further processing of their products for many customers, because outsourcing preliminary stages in the production process simplifies work and saves money. After finishing the forged blanks, we carry out the mechanical processing of the products.

Modern CNC machines are then used for final machining according to our customers’ specifications. This involves turning and milling operations as well as drilling, reaming and thread forming. Complete machining is possible at any time on the turning and milling centers. The vertical range of manufacture enables subsequent further processing or direct installation of the finished parts.

Machining options:

Process Weight Dimension
CNC turning up to 14 kg up to Ø 280 mm
CNC milling up to 30 kg Depending on the clamping situation
Drilling up to Ø 65 mm
