The Steel Cold Heading Process

Cold heading is a metalworking process that utilizes high speed, automated equipment to form metal (usually in the form of wire or strip) into finished parts. Complex parts with tight tolerances can be created quickly and cost-effectively through the cold head fabrication process. Additionally, cold headed forgings can be repeated with near-perfect precision in quantities in the tens of thousands. The steel cold heading process is comprised of various stages provides work hardening of the base metal. The cold headed stages include:

  • Spool Insertion
  • Progressive Die Engineering
  • Part Production

The results of the steel cold heading manufacturing process are finished parts that are stronger than the original material from which they’re made.
