Abstract

A forging assembly may comprise a first die and a second die configured to translate toward the second die. A first sensor may be coupled to at least one of the first die or the second die. The first sensor may be configured to output a first signal correlating to a first distance between the first die and the second die. Additional sensors may be applied to track die alignment during the forging process.
