CNC Machined vs. Forged Vessel Components

API wellhead component forging and custom CNC machining connections for pressure vessels are both popular in ASME pressure vessel connections manufacturing. Forging involves squeezing metal between two molds: a moving mold called a tool and a stationary mold called a die. CNC machines use rotating cutting tools to shape a piece of metal, called a billet, into the desired part. …

CNC Machines vs. 3D Printers for Pressure Vessel Connections

3D printing and CNC machining are both popular automated technologies for producing parts and prototypes. 3D printing is an additive process that involves layering material to create a desired shape, while CNC machining is a subtractive process that removes excess from a block of material to create a shape. These different processes lead to four primary differences between projects using …
