What is BS EN 2957-Method of preparation of forged samples about?
BS EN 2957 is a standard that serves technical specifications for the method of preparation of forged samples that ensure operational life and structural integrity in aerospace applications. Improves physical properties
BS EN 2957 defines the requirements for the preparation of forged test samples. It is applicable when referenced in the relevant EN material standard or EN technical specification unless there are any exceptions.
BS EN 2957 applies to round products of ≥ 20 mm diameters or other shapes of the equivalent cross-section.
Who is BS EN 2957-Method of preparation of forged samples for?
BS EN 2957 on the method of preparation of forged samples applies to:
- Manufacturers of forged products in aerospace applications
- Dealers and importers of forged products in aerospace applications
- Suppliers of materials for forged products in aerospace applications
- Testing houses and labs for forged products in aerospace industry
- Quality assurance services
Why should you use BS EN 2957-Method of preparation of forged samples?
Forgings are metal products that have been shaped by compressive forces. Compressive forces are typically applied by pressing, beating, or squeezing with pressure. The fundamental advantage of aerospace forging is that it produces more robust and durable end-products than those made by casting or shaping machinery.
BS EN 2957 provides you guidance on forging conditions, including forging temperature and forging method, enabling you to provide an optimal environment for the forging process, which increases its physical properties.
BS EN 2957 also provides you guidance on pancake use which includes assessment of forgeability, assessment of structural characteristics, sampling of test pieces for mechanical tests, which enables quick forging with minimal tooling.
Guidance in BS EN 2957 allows you to standardize the production and assessment of forged samples for aerospace applications.
