The main difference between die casting and die forging is that casting uses some sort of liquid metal as a medium in which to create the part. The molten metal is poured into molds which are used to create parts
Die forging, on the other hand, works with solid material and uses hammers to shape it into a desired form. The process of forming these parts is done by heating them up until they become malleable enough for the hammer to be used on them.
