Casting Simulation & Methoding Services
Casting Simulation, Method Analysis & Development, Quality Improvement & Yield Optimization.
Check your casting and predict shrinkage, porosity defects – without incurring tooling costs or waiting for trials. Assess your method for potential defects. Optimize it for quality and yield improvement.
We enable foundries to effectively design, evaluate
and optimize their casting design with the help
of Cast-Designer. Our service will help you to avoid
expensive trial and error processes on real prototypes
during the product and mould development cycle,
which will save expensive material, labor cost and
manpower. We provide the casting simulation service for
various casting process e.g. HPDC, LPDC, Gravity
Die Casting (GDC), Sand Casting, Investment casting, Tilt casting etc. Interested
foundries can avail any of below services as per
their requirement and need.
EVALUATION OF Existing CASTING DESIGN
to solve various problems in existing
or new castings in those foundries that
not yet have their own software.

NEW CASTING DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT
If casting foundry is interested
to outsource their casting design and
development, our expert and experience
design engineer could provide complete
consultancy

EVALUATION OF Existing CASTING DESIGN
Engineering Service can be used to solve
various problems in existing or new castings
in those foundries that not yet have their own
software. Simulation Service is an inexpensive
way to locate problem areas and identify reasons
for problems. Different casting solutions for
the problem can be simulated quickly.
In foundry designer may have various possible
concept/ideas for gating system design of any
casting part & process. These ideas can be verified
through Cast-Designer casting simulation. Find
out which is the best design among 4-5 concept,
and then the best design needs to be produced
in foundry. Using Cast-Designer one can easily
evaluate 4-5 concepts within a week. So in week
time foundry can finalize their casting design
of even any new product and start production
of casting defect free part. Necessary tests
(X-Ray, Radiography, destructive-non destructive
test) can be carried out on prototype to verify
the accuracy of Cast-Designer.
To avail this service foundry needs to have
2D sketch or 3D model of casting part & gating
system design/concept. Our engineer will evaluate
this concept/design and provide full report
with the details of each design its feasibility,
casting defect, animations etc.
Required Input:
- Casting part (2D sketch or 3D Geometry)
- Details of gating system design (2D
sketch or 3D Geometry of Gate, Runner, Sprue,
Riser, Hot/Cold Chamber)
- Casting process details (Pouring temperature,
Casting material details etc.)
Simulation Service Result (Output):
Standard output is on Microsoft PowerPoint
format report with eventual problems description
with animations.
- Mold filling animations, detect if any
filing problem!
- Gas/Air Entrapment animation, identify
location if gas/air could not escape!
- Solidification animation, identify liquid
spots!
- Solidification times and directions
- Shrinkage/Porosity detection
- Hot spots
NEW CASTING DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT
If you do not have the possibility to do
the simulation by yourself, and you wish to
get a solution to your casting problem, we are
happy to offer you simulations as a service.
Service simulations are often the most cost-effective
means to get quick solutions for casting problems
in small foundries or urgent projects.
If casting foundry is interested to outsource
their casting design and development, our expert
and experience design engineer could provide
complete consultancy. We can design gating design,
evaluate and optimize using Cast-Designer. And
foundry will get 3D model of complete gating
system design and report of simulation as an
output. From this given 3D model (.STEP or .IGES)
can prepare required gating system design in
their foundry.
Foundry can start production of any new casting
part within a week time working closely with
an expert engineer of Auto Design Online.
Required Input:
- Casting part (2D sketch or 3D Geometry)
- Casting process details (Pouring temperature,
Casting material details etc.)
Simulation Service Result (Output):
Standard output is on Microsoft PowerPoint
format report with eventual problems description
with animations.
- 3D model in .STEP or .IGES format of
full gating system design
- Mold filling animations, detect if any
filing problem!
- Gas/Air Entrapment animation, identify
location if gas/air could not escape!
- Solidification animation, identify liquid
spots!
- Solidification times and directions
- Shrinkage/Porosity detection
- Hot spots
