Frequently Asked Questions

What does Birson Forgings manufacture?

Birson Forgings manufactures industrial power presses and forging presses. The range covers H-frame and C-frame power presses in both mechanical and pneumatic drive, down-stroke friction screw presses, up-stroke forging screw presses, cross shaft presses, knuckle joint presses and special purpose presses built to customer drawings.

What tonnage range of power press does Birson Forgings make?

Power presses are built from 30 tonnes to 300 tonnes in H-frame and C-frame designs. Friction screw presses run from 50 to 600 tonnes down-stroke, and forging screw presses reach 1000 tonnes in the up-stroke configuration. Capacities outside these ranges are quoted as special purpose builds.

Where is Birson Forgings located?

Birson Forgings manufactures at B-137, G.T. Road, Pawa Khagat, near Airport Road, Ludhiana, Punjab 141014, India. Ludhiana is the centre of India's forging and press manufacturing industry. Buyers can visit the works, and overseas buyers can request a live video walkthrough of the shop floor before ordering.

Is Birson Forgings ISO certified?

Yes. Birson Forgings holds ISO 9001:2015 certification for its quality management system. Quality inspectors check dimensional accuracy, frame welding and assembly against fixed standards at each build stage, and third-party pre-shipment inspection by agencies such as SGS, BV or TUV can be arranged on request.

What is the difference between an H-frame and a C-frame power press?

An H-frame press carries load through two side columns, which resists frame deflection and suits heavier, centred blanking and forming work. A C-frame or gap frame press is open at the front and sides, giving far easier access for hand feeding, tool changes and long or awkward parts, at some cost in rigidity.

What is the difference between a down-stroke friction screw press and an up-stroke forging screw press?

In a down-stroke friction screw press the blow travels downward, and because tool height adjustment is eliminated, forging accuracy improves. It suits hot forming, coining, stamping, embossing and sizing. In an up-stroke forging screw press the blow travels upward from bottom to top, which suits bolt heads, nuts, rivets, motor parts, axle half shafts and engine valves.

Does Birson Forgings export power presses?

Yes. Birson Forgings presses are in service across India and in export markets worldwide. Machines are supplied crated and sea-worthy packed, with documentation, test reports and photographs of the actual serial number available before dispatch, and third-party pre-shipment inspection can be written into the contract or letter of credit.

Does Birson Forgings build custom or special purpose presses?

Yes. Special purpose presses are designed and manufactured in steel fabricated frames to match an exact application, including non-standard tonnage, stroke, daylight, bed size and automation interfaces. Send a part drawing, material grade, thickness and required output rate, and Birson Forgings will propose a configuration.

How long has Birson Forgings been manufacturing presses?

Birson Forgings has been manufacturing power presses and forging presses since 1985, giving the company four decades of continuous production in Ludhiana. That experience covers mechanical and pneumatic drives, friction screw press technology and special purpose machines built for forging, stamping and sheet metal shops.

How do I choose the right press tonnage for my job?

Calculate required force from the cut length, material thickness and shear strength of the material, then add a safety margin, typically 20 to 30 percent. An undersized press stalls at the bottom of the stroke and overheats the clutch. Birson Forgings offers a press tonnage calculator and free sizing help on request.
