Ningbo Jiangbei XinYe Metal Works Co., Ltd. was established in 1996 as a family-owned metal workshop. Today, it has evolved into a leading owner-managed SME corporation specializing in advanced forging, casting, and precision machining technologies. Strategically situated in the Ningbo Jiangbei Industrial Zone, our modern facilities are conveniently accessible, lying within a comfortable 3-hour journey from Shanghai Pudong International Airport via China's high-speed rail network.
Spanning over a total floor area of 16,000 square meters for core production operations, with an additional 11,000 square meters of custom infrastructure development, we have designed our physical layout to support high-efficiency workflow routing and strict quality separation. Our enterprise maintains an optimized team of 130 highly trained employees, which includes 80 core production technicians and 50 dedicated specialists focusing on continuous product development, engineering, quality assurance, global logistics, and administrative leadership.
By combining classic hot and cold forging processes with modern multi-axis CNC machining, we offer a comprehensive technical competence portfolio. Our worldwide partners in Europe, North America, and other industrialized regions trust our deep manufacturing knowledge and long-term commitment to technological refinement.
The global sourcing environment for precision components requires high durability, strict cost control, and rapid manufacturing adaptation. As raw material costs rise and specifications become more demanding, international companies need to move beyond simple contract manufacturing. Modern sourcing requires a deep integration of raw material supply, toolmaking knowledge, forging controls, secondary high-precision machining, and strict quality verification. This integration represents the core advantage of China's advanced forging suppliers.
Ningbo has established itself as one of the world's most concentrated clusters for tooling development, raw material processing, and surface treatment technologies. This regional concentration offers key competitive advantages for global buyers:
The local proximity to advanced toolmakers allows us to compress die development cycles by up to 40% compared to Western manufacturing hubs. Rapid iteration of custom dies speeds up sample production and helps verify designs quickly.
Located near the Port of Ningbo-Zhoushan, one of the world's busiest container hubs, we provide direct shipping access to major international ports, reducing transit times and minimizing supply chain disruptions.
Direct sourcing agreements with tier-one domestic steel and aluminum refineries ensure consistent material quality, stable pricing, and reliable mill test certificates (MTC) for structural applications.
Forging remains the preferred manufacturing process for parts requiring high strength, impact resistance, and fatigue life. During closed-die hot forging, metal is formed under intense pressure at temperatures above its recrystallization point. This process alters the grain flow of the metal, aligning it with the shape of the component.
This grain refinement provides excellent mechanical properties compared to casting or machining from bar stock. Voids and porosity are eliminated, ensuring internal structural integrity. This makes hot-forged aluminum and steel components suitable for critical safety applications, including automotive steering knuckles, transmission components, and high-pressure valves.
At XinYe Metal Works, we have expanded our manufacturing technologies over nearly three decades to match the complex demands of our customers. We provide a single-source solution starting from engineering analysis, raw material inspection, custom tooling production, forging, high-precision machining, custom surface treatments, and mechanical assembly.
Our production floor includes friction press lines with capacities ranging from 300 to 1,000 metric tons. This capability allows us to process forgings with weights from 0.1 kg to 15 kg with consistent structural density.
Hydraulic presses ranging from 100 tons to 630 tons provide constant force control, ideal for deep drawing, punching, and forming operations.
A series of high-speed stamping presses from 5 tons to 250 tons supports efficient bulk run production for simple and complex components.
Our manufacturing facility operates 16 hours a day, 6 days a week under normal conditions. Depending on project scale and delivery deadlines, our team can transition to a 24/7 continuous operation mode within 30 days. We also maintain adjacent development land to support capacity expansions for long-term customer contracts.
At XinYe, we treat quality control as a core pillar of our manufacturing operations. We are ISO 9001:2015 certified for quality management systems and SA8000 certified for social accountability. From incoming raw material verification through in-process audits to final inspections, every part is tracked with documentation to maintain transparency.
Performs chemical composition analysis of raw materials to verify correct alloy grades before production starts.
Coordinate Measuring Machine provides automated 3D dimensional measurements with accuracy down to micron levels.
Non-contact optical inspection system for checking complex geometries and small feature profiles.
Secondary video system optimized for checking high-volume production batches and stamping tolerances.

Our engineering team processes engineering drawings in multiple standard formats, including STEP, IGES, DWG, and PDF. We verify that dimensional tolerances, surface finish specifications (using ISO or ASME metrics), and material standards (such as ASTM, DIN, EN, or JIS) are fully aligned. When requested, we can suggest domestic Chinese equivalent materials to help reduce costs while meeting mechanical requirements.
We provide complete documentation packages with our shipments to ensure compliance and support material tracking:
To meet the social and environmental standards of modern supply chains, we maintain SA8000 social accountability certification. This shows our commitment to safe working conditions, fair compensation, and regular safety training. We also track compliance with RoHS and REACH standards for parts destined for the EU.
Our pricing is based on the specific requirements of each project. We evaluate material costs, tooling design, forging cycles, setup times for machining, surface finishing, and packaging. We provide detailed quotations showing these costs individually. Quotes remain valid for a specified period, after which pricing may be adjusted to reflect changes in material or market conditions.
Yes, we require minimum order quantities for international shipments. This helps cover tooling setup costs, forging run times, and shipping logistics. MOQs vary depending on the part weight and complexity. For small to medium components, we typically require an ongoing annual volume, which we can discuss during the quoting process.
We provide standard documentation packages with every shipment, including material analysis certificates, dimensional inspection records, heat treatment charts, and surface treatment reports. If your application has specific quality requirements, please let us know during the design review phase so we can configure our quality checks accordingly.
For custom forgings, the tooling design and sample production process usually takes around 30 to 45 days. Once samples are approved, mass production runs typically require 20 to 30 days, depending on order size and machining complexity. We work to accommodate tight deadlines and will coordinate closely with your logistics team.
Our standard payment terms are a 30% deposit in advance to cover initial raw material purchases, with the remaining 70% balance paid against the copy of the Bill of Lading (B/L). For custom tooling, we require 100% of the tooling cost upfront before design work begins.
We warrant our materials and workmanship. If a part has a manufacturing defect or fails to meet the specified tolerances, we will review the inspection records and work to resolve the issue. If the defect is confirmed to be on our side, we will repair or replace the parts to keep your project on schedule.
We use heavy-duty export packaging designed for sea transit. Forgings and machined parts are coated with rust-preventative oil, wrapped in plastic barriers, and packed in reinforced crates or boxes. Desiccant packs are added to control moisture. If you have custom packaging requirements, we can accommodate them as part of our pricing.
We support multiple shipping terms, including FOB Ningbo/Shanghai, CIF, and DDU, working with either your nominated freight forwarder or our logistics partners. Air freight and express options are available for urgent sample deliveries or small batches.
