With the rapid development of computer technology, the simulation software of the casting process is also applied. The application of casting simulation technology is not limited to the simulation and analysis in the process of product development, and the process simulation of production and manufacturing also plays a pivotal role. That is, before casting, the simulation experiment is carried out on the computer for the established process. It can ensure the success of the process, design, and mold manufacturing. So, what is the commonly used casting software? We sorted out the commonly used casting software album for you!
1.MAGMASOFT
MAGMAsoft is a comprehensive and effective simulation tool for improving casting quality, optimizing process conditions and greatly reducing casting costs. It supports the establishment of sound process conditions and the optimization of all casting materials and processes in casting. It is designed to predict casting quality by simulating filling, solidification and cooling in all casting production processes. In all casting processes, residual stress and deformation, as well as the stroke and property distribution of the microstructure can be effectively evaluated. Simulation can be used for virtual test planning while pursuing different quality and cost objectives.
