Hot forming of steel and special alloys

Forgings from your desired material in the hot pressing plant

For hot formingof your steel forged parts, we always use the highest-quality material in our hot-forming shop. Whether steel or special steel —we ensure that your product is durable and of the highest quality. To that end, we rely on European steel manufacturers with a long tradition and experience. This allows us to always guarantee you the best possible end result. Have your custom-made forged part manufactured at our hot-pressing plant in the Eifel region and see for yourself.

Our European steel is of high quality and has a good composition of carbon, chromium, nickel, and other metals. This makes it particularly resilient, durable, and malleable. In addition, steel production in Europe is subject to stricter environmental and occupational safety regulations than in many other regions of the world, which contributes to more sustainable manufacturing. Finally, the quality of our steel is ensured by effective heat and surface treatment .

Hot forming with European steel

Resistance: higher content of metals such as chromium and nickel increases corrosion protection and reduces wear and tear
Durability: higher quality ensures longer service life
Formability: production of complex geometric shapes due to high flexibility
Reliability: long tradition and experience of European steel producers improves quality assurance and conveys reliability

The starting material warehouse in the hot stamping plant offers you a wide and high-quality selection of different steel grades. Even if you cannot find your desired material grade in our stock, our purchasing team will procure it as quickly as possible. In this way, we guarantee you maximum flexibility in the hot stamping of your forged product.

Your special forging products

Order special alloys and save costs

Remember: We also forge special steels for your project. In the process, our employees process, for example, unalloyed nickel, nickel-based wrought alloys, molybdenum alloys, titanium alloys, pure iron or tantalum during hot forming.

And that's still not all: We also forge your special alloys cost-efficiently. Compared to conventional production - off the shelf - we use significantly less material. Since special alloys are extremely expensive, you save enormous additional costs on your project.

So whether you’re having custom forged products made exclusively from European steel or from specialty materials—at the Max B. Schachmann hot-forging plant in Niederstadtfeld in the Eifel region—you can always count on high quality, durability, and superior craftsmanship. Place your forging order with us in Niederstadtfeld and see for yourself.
