SHF × CRF Hybrid Technology｜High-Precision Forming for Hollow Parts at Lower Cost
Daido Steel (Thailand) combines SHF (Hot Forging) and CRF (Cold Roll Forming) in a hybrid production method that reduces costs, cuts machining steps, and enables high-precision mass production of complex and hollow components for automotive, robotics, and agricultural industries.
■ SHF × CRF Hybrid Process: Integrated Forging + Cold Finishing
The SHF process first creates the basic shape with high strength, followed by CRF for dimensional accuracy and surface refinement. This reduces post-processing needs and allows stable production of parts with tight tolerances and complex geometries.
■ Key Features of SHF × CRF Hybrid Forming
・ Forging + Precision Cold Forming – Improves dimensional accuracy and surface finish without excessive cutting
・ Full In-House Production – Cutting, heating, forming, finishing, and inspection are all done in-house
・ Material & Cost Efficiency – Fewer steps, less material waste, shorter lead times
■ Suitable Products (up to φ180 mm)
・ Gears – For both ring and stepped shapes with precise ID/OD forming
・ Clutch Hubs – Hollow cylindrical components needing high mechanical strength
・ Sleeves (φ138 & φ146 mm) – Supports asymmetrical shapes, grooves, and tight tolerances
■ Industries Using SHF × CRF Hybrid Technology
・ Automotive – Gears, drive shafts, clutch parts
・ Robotics – Joint components and motion mechanisms
・ Agricultural Machinery – High-strength torque parts and clutches
・ Construction & Industrial Machinery – Durable hollow structural components
By integrating SHF and CRF technologies, Daido Steel (Thailand) delivers high-quality components with reduced cost, minimal variation, and consistent mass-production quality—supporting leaner supply chains and better product performance.
