There are various types of forging equipment. Hammer forging equipment, hot die forging press, screw press, flat forging machine, four-column hydraulic press and so on are common production line equipment in forging workshop at the present stage.

The effective selection of forging equipment is mainly decided by the application and rationality of manufacturing. It should be selected according to the specific situation of the current machinery and equipment of the processing plant. Generally speaking, small and medium-sized random forgings choose random forging hammer; Large and medium-sized forgings choose random forging hammer or hydraulic press; Hot die forging press should be used for mass production of die forging parts. Medium level mass die forgings, small and medium-sized open high speed punch complex forgings should choose anvil hammer; Large, medium and small die forgings of difficult deformation raw materials should be selected to strike. The screw press should be used for fine forging with symmetrical shape. Large and medium-sized light metal die forgings should choose four - column hydraulic press.

The world's more than 10,000 tons of hot forging free forging press, large and medium-sized free forging automatic production line has been widely seen from this, 60T high-speed press screw press cargo capacity has already exceeded 8000T, die forging hydraulic press more than 70000T, multi-direction die forging hydraulic press more than 65000T.
