Our Process
Weber tailors its processes to satisfy customer requirements and is able to manage a large supply base to assist in performing these activities.
Special processing or machining may be incorporated into our process depending on customer needs.
Forging
Various grades of aluminum and titanium alloys
OPEN DIE
Open die forging/forming to create unique preform shapes for closed-die forgings and engineered hand forgings.
- Up to 11,000 lbs
- ST > 4″
- LT > 11″ < 38″
- LG < 22 ft
CLOSED DIE
Closed die forging to create complex forging shapes, concurrently engineered with our customers for ease of manufacture and machinability.
- Up to 4000 lbs
- Aluminum compression stress relieving
- Incremental forging capabilities for large forgings

Weber's stress relieved aluminium close die forgings are shown in their assembled locations for a large business jet cockpit.
ENGINEERED HAND FORGINGS
- Up to 7x less material compared to plate
- Low residual stress in EHF parts
- Multi directional bend capable
- Maximum weight 8,000lbs
LARGE MONOLITHIC FORGINGS
- We have the ability to produce and stress relieve large monolithic forgings reducing final part weight
- Our large presses allow for us to design and replace multiple parts with a single forged piece.
ROTATING PARTS
We currently produce engine disks ranging from 16” – 48” diameter:
- Forge from Ti 6-4. Ti 6–2–4–2, and Inconel 718
- Producing disks weighing up to 1000lbs
- Each disk must have material and physical properties of the highest grade to function in the latest generation of commercial & jet engines


Quality Assurance
Our quality assurance department has full-dimensional inspection capabilities, state-of-the-art coordinate measuring machines, and laser-scanning equipment that map and compare to customer models.
In-House Testing
Our in-house destructive testing facility offers mechanical testing, micro and macro-structural examinations (including grain flow), and chemical composition verification in accordance with the most recent industry and customer specifications.
Non-destructive testing to verify surface and internal material integrity, including:
- State-of-the-art fluorescent penetrant inspection lines for small and large forgings
- Four ultrasonic inspection tanks allowing inspection of open and closed die forgings
Heat Treatment
- Perform low temperature annealing/aging of titanium forgings
- 10,000 lb drop-bottom electric furnace for solution treatment of aluminum
- 50,000 lb gas-fired age furnace for aluminum
- Two 12,000 lb salt bath age furnaces for aluminum
- High-temperature solution treatment and engineered cooling solutions for titanium forgings
Metallurgy
Our Metallurgists participate on various industry committees related to materials and processing such as the Aluminum Association, SAE, MMPDS, FIA & Nadcap.
They are supported by a highly-skilled group of technicians who closely monitor and control forging and heat-treating operations to assure the highest quality product is delivered.
- In-house test material removal / machining
- Macro/microstructural prep / etch / evaluation
- Grain flow evaluation
- In-house wet lab
- Tensile testing
Secondary processing
- Water jet / torch cutting
- Conventional contour cutting
- Hand and large-scale grinding equipment to remove surface burrs and imperfections

The Largest Press in North America
60,000 ton press
The 60,000 Ton press is capable of producing some of the largest monolithic structures in the world. Use of this press reduces piece weight, eliminates the need for more unique part numbers, and optimizes assembly by decreasing the amount of connection points for fasteners.


Ring Rolling
Our Ring Rolling operations are powered by cutting-edge machinery, including:
- SMS Wagner Banning 400/200 -3600/900 CNC Ring Mill: This advanced CNC Ring Mill has 400 tons of Radial and 200 tons of Axial force and represents the pinnacle of precision and efficiency in the industry. It allows us to craft seamless and flawlessly engineered rings to exact specifications, ensuring optimal performance in a variety of applications.
- 300-Ton Vertical Ring Mill: With our 300-ton vertical ring mill, we possess the capacity to handle even the most demanding projects. Its robust design and versatile capabilities make it an essential part of our manufacturing arsenal.
