The (often categorized within the DGH40 series) is a pneumatic counterblow forging hammer designed for the production of large and ultra-large high-precision forgings. It is manufactured by Schuler Group (BÊCHÉ) and is widely used for manufacturing critical components like turbine blades, crankshafts, and heavy-duty flanges. Technical Specifications
Total machine weight ranges between 215 and 281 tons , depending on whether the frame is sheet metal or cast steel. Key Operational Features ONE BECHE 40 TON COUNTERBLOW HAMMER MODEL DG40H...
Two rams move in opposite directions, meeting in the center. This nearly balances impact forces, transferring minimal vibration to the hammer's foundation compared to standard anvil hammers. The (often categorized within the DGH40 series) is
These hammers are predominantly used in industries requiring high-strength, thin, or heavy forged components: Turbine blades and structural aircraft parts. Key Operational Features Two rams move in opposite
Based on industry listings for the 40-ton (40,000 kgm) model:
The DG series utilizes a pneumatic drive (compressed air or steam) to achieve extremely high forging energy levels.
Solid uprights and a robust guide system maintain high accuracy during the forging of large components. Industrial Applications
