Forging has been around for centuries, and it still matters more than ever.
Since 1919, Clifford Jacobs Forging has been shaping steel into parts that keep the world moving – from Apache helicopters and F-18 components to elevator axles and mining equipment. In today’s MTDCNC Podcast, our guest Lori Brown of IMT Corporation breaks down what forging really is, why it still outperforms casting in critical applications, and how AI, simulation, and smarter furnace controls are modernising one of manufacturing’s oldest trades.
Why is workholding always an afterthought – if the machine never touches the part?
Invest a million dollars in a machine tool, forget about the chuck – and you’ve already compromised everything. In today’s MTDCNC podcast, Hainbuch’s Jarred breaks down why workholding is the most overlooked variable on the shop floor and how getting it right saves time, money, and scrap. From the IQ Chuck measuring diameter, RPM, and part temperature live inside the chuck, to the CentroteX AC system performing complete chuck changeovers lights out without an operator – there’s a reason one customer was able to take thirteen operators off a single cell. Join the conversation and find out why workholding isn’t
