Abstract: Metal processing based on numerical simulation plays an important role in improving processing efficiency and finished product quality. This paper takes the forging process of 41Cr4 alloy steel wheel hub as the research object, and uses QForm simulation software for numerical simulation to analyze and optimize the forging process. The study first establishes a three-dimensional modeling and forging simulation model to predict the metal flow, temperature field distribution, and stress changes during the forging process, providing a basis for defect prediction, grain control, and microstructure optimization of forgings. In response to common defects in the production process of 41Cr4 wheels, such as poor filling, folding, and shrinkage, this article effectively avoids these defects through simulation analysis and process parameter optimization, improving the quality of finished products and material utilization. In addition, this papar proposes a multi-stage forging process plan based on the requirements of international Olympic competitions, optimizing mold design, process arrangement, and temperature control to ensure the efficiency and operability of the forging process. The simulation and verification results show that the optimized process can meet the requirements of the part drawing and the customer's machining allowance, and has high practical significance and promotion value. Meanwhile, vocational education and general high education can enhance the international perspective of talent cultivation through this study and play a demonstrative role by participating in international Olympic competition projects.
