What Is A Sliding Rotor Forging？

Sliding rotor forgings ‌ means the workpiece or blank obtained by forging deformed metal billets, specifically referring to the forgings used to manufacture sliding rotors. The sliding rotor is usually used in the turbocharger, as one of the core components of the turbocharger, responsible for converting the exhaust energy discharged by the engine into mechanical energy, driving the compressor impeller to work, thereby increasing the intake of the engine, improving the engine power and torque ‌. Forging refers to the workpiece or blank obtained by forging deformation of metal blanks. During the forging process, the metal billets undergo plastic deformation under the action of pressure, which changes its mechanical properties. Forgings can be divided into cold forging, warm forging and hot forging according to the temperature of processing. Cold forging is generally carried out at room temperature, while hot forging is carried out at a higher recrystallization temperature than the metal billet ‌.
