Brooks Forgings Ltd, established in 1960, is the leading UK forge producing Forged, Fabricated and Machined components.
Offering forging, machining, and fabrication to our customers eliminate the reliance on sub-contractors. This not only ensures full traceability and quality of components but also improves lead times.
By having a rotational method of production components can move on to the next process, machining for example, whilst the batch quantity is still being forged.
With our extensive in-house manufacturing capabilities we are able to produce standards and specials to suit customer-specific requirements.
Our Processes Include:
Forging Capacity
At the heart of our manufacturing facility is 16 forging cells, each utilising the latest heating technology. Capable of forging from 10mm diameter up to 100mm diameter and lengths up to 6000mm.
In-house CAD/CAM and tool-making capabilities enable us to manufacture specials and standard components on short lead times.
A comprehensive CNC machining capacity gives us the ability to deal with low and high-volume requirements and provides our customers with consistent quality and accuracy.
Machining Capacity
Our dedicated machining department specialises in the production of special and standard fasteners. We manufacture to national and international standards, customer drawings and component samples by reverse engineering.
Fabrication Capacity
We have on-site Robot and Flash Butt Welding capabilities along with traditional welding processes. Please contact us to discuss your fabrication requirements.
Quality Control
Our reputation for quality is underpinned by operating to BS EN ISO 9001, throughout all stages of production.
Component traceability is ensured by individual cast identification supported by all levels of certification. We offer Certificates of Conformity through to BS EN 10204 2.1, 2.2, 3.1 and independent inspection to BS EN 10204 3.2.
Quality plans, first article, and dimensional inspection reports are available upon request.
