Korea Metal Week 2025

At Korea Metal Week 2025, which took place on October 29-31, CAE Technology Co., Ltd. turned its booth into a hub for engineers, researchers, and experts from around the world.

😎⚙️💙

The discussions went beyond technology, focusing on real solutions for optimizing forging, rolling, extrusion and forming processes with QForm. A highlight of the exhibition was the opportunity to receive live, in-person consultations with engineers right at the booth👨🏼‍💻

Many thanks to our partners for an excellently organized event!💙

CAETECH 2025 User Conference

Another important event took place in Korea, organized by our distributor CAE Technology Inc. — the CAETECH 2025 User Conference.

User conferences are among the most significant events in the professional community, where we share not only the latest developments that streamline production processes but also successful examples of QForm implementation and use 🔨

Presentations featuring real manufacturing success stories, numerous questions from participants, and the overall energy of the event confirmed that the CAETECH 2025 User Conference was a great success.👏🤝

If you are interested in solutions for the simulation, design, and optimization of extrusion, forging, or rolling processes in South Korea, please contact CAE Technology Inc. (info@caetech.co.kr)

QForm UK Direct in action: CAE Technology showcases its innovative software at KSTP 2025

🔨 Our distributor, CAE Technology Inc., attended the annual fall conference 2025 KSTP (The Korean Society for Technology of Plasticity and Materials Processing).

At the conference, they presented a presentation titled “Optimal design of preforming and process analysis techniques for multi-material (AL–STEEL) in composite forging processes”, demonstrating the use of QForm UK Direct 🔨 for preform forging.

With the recent rise of lightweight and high-strength automotive parts, multi-material composite forgings combining aluminum and steel are attracting increasing attention. However, forging two materials with different physical and mechanical properties can easily lead to issues such as joint defects and reduced formability.

To address these challenges, this study employed QForm UK Direct to automatically design an optimal preform shape that takes into account aluminum’s flow behavior. QForm UK was then used to perform composite forging simulations, proposing a simulation technique capable of analyzing maximum forming load, underfilling zones, and joint performance during the process.

As a result, the study presents an efficient procedure for designing preforms for multi-material composite forgings and introduces a simulation-based approach for verifying the preform geometry.

🔨 QForm UK Direct is a computer-aided system for automated design of bulk forging preforming dies. QForm UK Direct makes it possible to create a 3D model of the preforming dies for bulk forging processes and import the geometry into QForm UK to verify the result. QForm UK Direct contains full functionality of a CAD software and uses QForm UK's calculation algorithms to generate surfaces. It is possible to refine die geometry in QForm UK Direct: add fillets, holes, and other necessary technological elements. The created geometry can be used for both QForm UK simulation and CAM systems.

The General Session at QForm Forum China is now live in Beijing! 🚀 ⚙️ 😎

With 50+ companies and 70+ participants, the event brings together leading experts in metal forming simulation.

☝️ Today we are introducing the latest QForm 12 release and diving into a comprehensive program of technical sessions, including the use of APIs, machine learning, and reverse engineering in QForm; studies of microstructure evolution during extrusion; advanced simulation tools for process design in semi-finished copper production; insights into the forging industry in China; metal casting simulation solutions — and much more.⚡️

Tomorrow we’re continuing with thematic section (forging, rolling, extrusion), hands-on master classes, and engaging discussions.

Let’s go!💪💙⚙️

QForm Forum China: Section Day and Master Classes

The QForm Forum in Beijing continues, and today is Section Day.

🔨🔨🔨

The Extrusion, Forging, and Rolling sections are running in parallel. In addition to thematic presentations, participants will be able to improve their skills in simulation of technological processes at our master classes.

☝️One of the main advantages of our face-to-face master classes is quick feedback from our high-level professionals. Participants can not only enhance their simulation skills for specialized processes but also get guidance and even solve problems related to their own simulations. For the master classes, we send all participants methodological materials and simulation examples.✍️

The QForm Forum China is coming to an end — stay tuned for our news, where we will tell you about the most important presentations and reports.

And if you are interested in organizing in-person master classes in your region, please contact us at market@qform3d.com or contact our representatives around the world.
