Question

Forging is typically done:

• A. At room temperature
• B. At elevated temperatures
• C. In powder form
• D. For non-metallic parts

Hint:

Cold forging is commonly done at room temperature, but for tougher metals, hot forging at elevated temperatures may be necessary.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Forging is a process where metal is shaped by applying compressive forces, and it is typically done at room temperature, especially in the case of cold forging. However, in some cases, such as for tougher metals, forging can be done at elevated temperatures (hot forging) to make the process easier.
- At room temperature is correct because cold forging is commonly used for many metals.
- At elevated temperatures is sometimes used in hot forging, but this is not typical for all forging processes.
- In powder form is incorrect as forging typically involves solid metals, not powder.
- For non-metallic parts is not correct as forging is primarily a process for metals.
Thus, forging is typically done at room temperature.
