At WHEMCO’s Lehigh Heavy Forge division, custom orders are routine. Special order requirements are met using state of the industry manufacturing facilities and production methods. Advanced computer modeling allows our engineers to accurately form complex shapes. With their skills and our equipment, a full range of custom open die products can be produced to your requirements - from simple shafts to complex large diameter cylinders.


Our computer controlled 10,000 ton open die hydraulic press is the largest open die press in the Western Hemisphere. It can handle ingots weighing up to 300 tons. The power of this press permits the use of wider dies for superior internal quality and strength. Our forging capabilities include the ability to produce shells and discs up to 200 inches in diameter and shafts up to 70 feet long.
