Who we are

Extra Forge d.o.o.

We are Extra Forge d.o.o., forging the future, specialized in closed die forging of steel and aluminium products. This places us among the few European forges with expert control of both materials and with high tech forgings in small and medium series. Besides steel and aluminium we also produce forgings from bronze, copper, brass and titanium when a project requires special mechanical properties or specific surface treatments. Our strength is the synergy of experience and innovation, a mix of the knowledge of senior forging masters and modern technologies, including Industry 4.0, digital traceability and artificial intelligence in process control. In this way we create precise, sustainable and competitive forgings which meet the highest European quality standards.

Our moto is: Forging future

Core values​:

  • Expertise and innovation, we combine tradition and technology.

  • Quality without compromise, ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 are part of our culture.

  • Flexibility, fast response and technical agility.

  • Responsibility, to the environment, employees and our customers.

At Extra Forge we believe in individual treatment of each project. Together with our experts and reliable partners we provide complete solutions, from tool and process development to machining, heat treatment and surface treatment (KTL, galvanizing, zinc coating). Our motto, from idea to ready to install product under one control.

Overview

Extra Forge d.o.o. is a boutique high tech forge specialized in precise steel and aluminium forgings, combining precision, speed and technical support through the entire process, from idea to final product. With more than 30 years of experience and continuous investment in development, we ensure repeatability, precision and full traceability for our customers. Our forgings are parts used by leading European manufacturers in mechanical engineering, energy, lifting technology, steel structures, agricultural machinery and e mobility.

We follow Lean Manufacturing principles and Factory 4.0 concepts. This gives us:

  • fewer losses,

  • shorter lead times,

  • real time order traceability,

  • and process optimization with artificial intelligence.

Aluminium is three times lighter than steel. With proper forging, for example alloys 6082 or 7075, it reaches up to 75 percent of the strength of steel. It is ideal for light and strong components in the energy and e mobility industry.

Fact about strength of forgings

Forged products reach up to 40 percent higher tensile strength and 30 percent longer service life than cast parts. Due to directed grain flow they are highly resistant to vibration, impacts and fatigue, so they are key in energy, transport, e mobility and construction.

Why is forging still indispensable?

What sets forging apart from other metalworking processes Forging changes the internal structure of the metal, not only its shape. The result is stronger, safer and more durable products that keep precision even after years of use.

Where are forged parts used?

In construction, electrical industry, lifting systems, mechanical engineering, shading and chain systems, agricultural machinery, e-mobility and energy. Most people do not know that without forging there would be no bridges, engines, gears and transmission shafts we use every day.

Why choose Extra Forge?

Because we are one of the few European companies that combine forging of steel, aluminium, bronze and titanium with digital traceability, sustainable energy and the responsiveness of a boutique forge.

As part of the P2 tender, the company received funds in the amount of EUR 54,000.00 for the implementation of the project for the development of an innovative service - small to medium series hybrid deep-hollow forging of steel and aluminum castings and thus for the launch of the new innovative company Extra Forge d.o.o. As part of the project, we produced the first tools for our customers and produced the first forgings for customers abroad. During the operation, the company increased the number of employees from 1 to 13 with the help of EU and Slovenian funds. The funds were used mainly for the creation of a working solution with the help of research and development of the latter and for the start commercialization. ​The investment is co-financed by the Republic of Slovenia and the European Union from the European Fund for Regional Development. https://www.eu-skladi.si/
