Save the Date: IFC 2025

Save the Date: IFC Frankfurt
5โ€“10 October 2025

From 5โ€“10 October 2025, the forging industry will gather in Frankfurt for the International Forging Congress (IFC) โ€“ one of the most important global events for our sector.

We are proud to announce that Jerko will be exhibiting together with our partner GEVA at booths 33 & 34.

๐Ÿ”น This is your opportunity to meet the leading experts in spray technology for forging โ€“ face to face.
๐Ÿ”น Discuss how the right spray system impacts die lifetime, productivity, and cost efficiency.
๐Ÿ”น Explore practical solutions that have already proven themselves in production worldwide.

For decision-makers across the forging supply chain, IFC is more than an exhibition โ€“ itโ€™s a platform to shape the future of our industry.

๐Ÿ“ Letโ€™s meet in Frankfurt โ€“ Booth 33 & 34.
We look forward to insightful discussions with you.

Our New Patented Spray Head Goes Into Series Production

Our New Patented Spray Head Goes Into Series Production!

Does this sound familiar to you?

Your forging line is often at a standstill because your old nozzle spray head permanently clogs? ๐Ÿ‘‰ The cost of a new spray head is extremely high?

Then we now have the solution!

In the last two years, our development team has done a great job and developed a nozzle technology that is unique. With the nozzle spray head, you can flexibly place the spray patterns on a base frame to prepare for the next die.

The advantages over conventional nozzle spray heads:

๐Ÿ’Ž Significant cost advantage, as an expensive milled spray head is not required for each die. ๐Ÿ’Ž Fast and flexible adjustment to dramatically reduce set-up times ๐Ÿ’Ž No moving parts in the spray head – no clogging!

Measuring and Control System for the Quantity of Spray Lubricant

Measuring and Control System for the Quantity of Spray Lubricant

Measuring and control system for the quantity of spray lubricant.

Exact measurement of the spray lubricant quantity increases the die lifetime!

Within the scope of a ZIM project, we developed a measurement and control system based on innovative ultrasonic sensors, which allows the specification of a precise quantity of spray lubricant for use in hot or warm forging.

In this way, the quality, reproducibility and economic efficiency of the forging process are significantly improved.

The heart of the system is the innovative measuring system which can be applied to the relevant flow rate range and different lubricant compositions and covers the application areas of typical forging processes over a wide area. The quality of the spray process in the forging industry has a major influence on the die life and the quality of the forged components as well as on the scrap rates of the components. Until now, it has not been possible, to measure the exact amount of lubricant per spray point applied to the dies between the forging processes or even to set it reproducibly, given the extremely short spray times.

Therefore, we developed a special measuring tube that requires little space and can be integrated into the spray system. In addition to the measuring principle, a control system with activation of the valves was also worked out. The measuring system with electronics and control software was integrated into a test facility and subjected to extensive series of measurements. The proven measuring accuracy of 1.5 – 3 % is very high, thus considerably improving the quality of the spraying process.

A further advantage of the system is that a retrofit of existing plants is also possible.

Many thanks to the employees of PFIF, who actively supported us throughout the entire project. We look forward to further exciting projects with you!

Separation And Feeding Of Forged Parts

Separation And Feeding Of Forged Parts

Vision & Teamwork

Profit from our know-how

SEPARATING – SORTING – FEEDING – SPRAYING

The task: For a retrofit on a hot forging line a part separation and a spray system with low space requirements must be integrated. The aim is to reduce the cycle time, multiply the product range and increase productivity. No easy task!

The solution: A combination of our high-speed manipulators with special grippers and a newly developed part separation system. Together with our customer and our innovative employees, we have developed a new way of part separation. With this system parts from ร˜ 30 mm – 99 mm and a length of 36 mm – 180 mm can be fed safely. The combination of spraying and gripping enables an extremely space-saving machine.

Parameters at a glance

  • ร˜ 30mm – 99 mm
  • Part length 36 mm – 180 mm
  • Diameter-length ratio from 1.15
  • Safe sorting of the different temperatures
  • Runtime monitoring for forged parts
  • Designed and built according to machinery directive 2006/42 EG

We would like to thank our customer for the trust they have placed in us
