Forgeability
Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-002407
The capacity of a material to undergo plastic deformation under compressive forces without fracturing, allowing it to be shaped by forging processes. It is influenced by factors such as temperature, strain rate, and the material's microstructure. High forgeability is desirable for efficient manufacturing of components.
