ʻO ka nānā ʻana ma mua o ka hoʻonā ʻana i ka wela he kaʻina hana mua e nānā i ka maikaʻi o ka ʻili o ka huahana a me nā ana e like me nā kūlana ʻenehana, make.ke kalaiwa anake kaha kiʻi a me ke kaʻina hana ma hope o ka pau ʻana o ke kaʻina hana forging. Pono e nānā pono i nā mea i lalo:
(1) ʻaʻohe māwae ka helehelena, ʻaʻohe kalai ʻana i ke apo wela i ka maikaʻi o ka ʻōpala, ka ʻili oxide a me ka ʻeha a me nā hemahema ʻē aʻe.
(2) Ke kaha kiʻi nui omake forgingspono e hōʻike i nā ana nui, nā ʻāpana ʻano kūikawā, nā ʻāpana cross-section, ke ʻano a me kahi o nā lua.

(3) Ka nui a me ka pololei omake forgingsʻO nā ʻāpana i mālama ʻia me ka wela e hōʻike i ka ʻae ʻana i ka mīkini, ka ʻeleʻele o ka ʻili, ka pololei o ke ana, ka pololei o ke kūlana a me ka pololei o ke ʻano.
(4) nā mea nānā e like me ka helu omake forgingspūʻulu 10% -20% wahi nānā ma lalo o ka puʻe, i ka wā i hoʻopaʻa ʻia ai ka pūʻulu o ka mākaʻikaʻi wahi e like me ke kaha kiʻi, hiki ke komo i ke kaʻina nānā. Pono e hoʻokaʻawale ʻia nā forgings i ʻike ʻia e kūpono ma mua o ke kinai ʻana.
(5) Ma mua o ke kinai ʻana, e nānā i ka papa waiwai o ka huahana i pau, 1-2nā kalaiwaPono e kau ʻia no ka laʻana (ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia nā huahana ʻōpala a ʻokiʻoki no ka laʻana), a pono e kaha ʻia ma ka forging "sampling" sample, e hōʻike i ka ʻokoʻa.
(6) Ma hope o ka nānā ʻana, pono e hoʻopiha pono ʻia ka helu o nā huahana i hoʻopau ʻia, ka helu o nā huahana ʻōpala hiki ke hoʻoponopono ʻia, ka helu o nā huahana ʻōpala hope loa a me ke code defect e hoʻopiha pono ʻia i ke kāleka e pili pū ana, a kau inoa ʻia e ka mea nānā.
