    - Various engine parts such as crankshaft and connecting rod, which are subjected to unpredictable loads, are manufactured by forging process.

    - There are various advantages of forging process as follows:

    1. Advancement in structure of metal and its mechanical properties

    2. Ease of welding

    3. Rapid duplication of components

    4. Ability of the forging to withstand unpredictable loads

    5. Minimum metal removal in machining process

    - As the ability to withstand unpredictable loads increases due to forging, the turbine discs, gears, wheels are also manufactured by forging.
