Casting Simulation
What is the casting simulation ?
The casting simulation is a tool used in foundries to monitor the filling process of the aluminum into the mold, so check filling and solidification of castings and identify any critical areas.
The simulation of the aluminum casting is achieved thanks to a software that performs a mathematical simulation of what happens during the process of filling and solidification within the mold steel, so as to check for any issues before moving to the machining of the mold.
Benefits
The benefits of using of the casting simulation are
Reduce time and cost of production
Optimization of feed channels
Evidence of any "porosity"
Compliance with quality standards required
Evidence of pockets of stagnation and the areas exposed to the danger of entrapped air
More information
Each simulation provides as output lots of useful information to technicians
Pouring time
Metal temperatures
Surface defects
Distribution oxides
Air entrapments
Solidification rate
Heat transfer coefficients
Mold temperature
Stress and strain for heat treatment of both the solidified metal that the mold
