Systems and methods produce forged powder metal parts respectively comprising a transverse feature. A system may comprise a powder metal die, a sintering oven, a forging apparatus, a core material, and a powder metal. The powder metal die may receive and compact the core material and the powder metal to form a compacted powder metal part with at least a portion of the core material embedded therein to define a transverse feature in the compacted powder metal part. The sintering oven may receive and sinter the compacted powder metal part with the core material remaining embedded therein to maintain the definition of the transverse feature during sintering. The forging apparatus may receive and forge the sintered powder metal part with the core material remaining embedded therein to maintain the definition of the transverse feature during forging with the embedded core material being removable from the forged powder metal thereafter.
