This paper mainly studies the influence of process parameters on the forming quality during the spinning process of 6061 aluminum alloy wheel forging blanks. The four parameters of spinning temperature, spindle speed, wheel feed and wall thickness reduction rate are selected for research, and the quality of the surface of the hub and the influence on the size of the hub are judged. Simufact software is used to simulate the influence of various process parameters on the forming quality of the hub. The results provide a certain reference for the reasonable selection of process parameters during the spinning forming process of 6061 aluminum alloy hub.
