ABSTRACT The basic concept of this project is manufacturing of aluminum alloys by forging process and different equipment like pneumatic hammer forging machines, furnaces, saddles, dies etc. and their qualitative analysis. The use of forging is to reduce material wastage and manufacturing time, avoids complex machining operations and used for mass production. The components are manufactured by various operations like up-setting, punching, draw-down and flattening. The study includes heat treatment and qualitative analysis also. Pneumatic forging hammers, hand tools like saddles, mandrels, punches, calipers and tongs will play prominent role in this process. The
