Hot Forging

QFORM makes possible the most complete use of the benefits of hot die forging, such as high productivity, obtaining intricate parts with minor tolerances and high product quality. The software allows the simulation of material flow in composite dies and prediction of feasible defects (voids, laps, and flow-through flaws). You can simulate the temperature, deformation and stress distribution in the workpiece and tool as well as the shape of the fibers in the forging, which is of utmost importance for quality control. The forging force and energy consumption analysis makes possible the selection of the most suitable equipment. With such a sophisticated design tool as QFORM, a process engineer can optimize the process to avoid defects, cut the material consumption and enhance the productivity without costly sample forgings.
