Steel forging

Our company started steel forging in 2007 with the purchase of the Csepel drop forge, which we renovated and modernised. Since then we have been successfully forging to DIN EN 10243. In recent years, we have opened two additional sites in Érd and Zalaegerszeg, where we also focus on serving our customers. The Csepel plant is ISO IATF 16949 certified, while the Zalaegerszeg plant is ISO 9001 certified.

We undertake forging of steel using a forging die process, from steel and its alloys:

At our sites in Csepel and Érd for larger batches of products weighing between 0.5 and 12 kg

Our plant in Zalaegerszeg specialises in smaller batches for larger sizes (0.5-20 kg).

What products do we produce in steel forging?

Automotive parts:
Shafts
Driving levers
Gears
Government interconnectors
Suspension elements
Brake parts
Shaped products (e.g. tow hooks)
Engine parts

With our own design teams, forging plants, machining centres and heat treatment capabilities, we can bring the entire manufacturing process in-house, enabling us to respond faster and more flexibly than average to market changes and individual needs. We design the necessary tooling using Creo CAD software, Edgecam, Simufact, for even greater precision. We have the advantage that while others in the industry specialise in circular symmetrical products, we can produce more difficult and complex shapes.

Our factories are distinguished at the production of tools for forging shops, from the smallest details of design to the final production. This ensures that each tool we make is perfectly tailored to your needs. We use high quality materials and modern technologies to offer the best and most durable tools. Our business is not only for tool making, but also machining of forgings. This way, we keep the entire process under one roof, guaranteeing smooth processes and a perfect end result.

Our products

Our forges in Csepel and Érd use excentric presses and drop forging. These sites specialise in larger series and the production of products from 0.5 to 12 kg. We produce parts for various industries such as connecting rods, spring pads, traction hooks, king pins, fuel pump housings or spring pads, but also brake parts and engine parts. In addition, many forges keep in stock the raw materials needed and sufficient for a given order book, unable to respond quickly to an unexpected new demand because of lead times. Fortunately, this does not affect Flansch – Tech Ltd, as its commercial arm always has raw materials of almost any required material grade on hand.

Our certificates

Manufactured to IATF 16949 and MSZ EN ISO 9001:2015 standards, our forged and heat treated products meet the most stringent quality management standards, ensuring superior performance and reliability in automotive and other industries. The application of these standards guarantees consistent product quality and continuous process improvement.

Applications

FLANSCH-TECH Metallászat i Produkt és Szerelvénykereskedelmi Kft. has won a HUF 24 million grant under the VEKOP-1.2.1-16 tender, covering 40.89% of the project costs. The aim of the project is to improve the technology of the forging plant in Érd, in the framework of which two induction heating devices were purchased. The new heaters have a capacity of 500 kg/hour each, compared to 100-120 kg/hour in the previous furnace, and operate with an accuracy of +/- 5 °C, which is particularly important for the automotive industry. The new equipment allows for more economical operation and higher production volumes, increasing the competitiveness of products.
