Smarter Die Spraying in Forging – Cooling and Lubrication Combined

Die spraying in forging processes faces unique challenges: extreme temperatures, short cycle times, and heavy-duty equipment that must operate with maximum reliability. For forging presses ranging from 2000 to 6000 tons, spraying isn’t just a supporting function — it’s essential to process stability and part quality.

Modern forging operations often require precise die cooling and lubrication in one step. When media such as graphite-based release agents are used, the risk of nozzle clogging increases. At the same time, demands for efficiency, consistency, and low maintenance continue to rise.

Spray systems today must adapt — and evolve.

That’s why robotic spraying tools are increasingly being integrated into forging lines. With smart spray equipment mounted directly on industrial robots, users benefit from:

External mixing nozzles that reduce clogging
Segmented or modular spray tools that match die geometry
Multi-circuit pressure control for precise top/bottom spray application
• The ability to switch between water cooling and graphite spray — using the same nozzles

As a result, forging manufacturers gain more control over the process, reduce unplanned downtime, and maintain consistent product quality — even under harsh conditions.
