Enhanced Venting in Permanent Mold Casting

In permanent mold casting, including Low Pressure Die casting , High Pressure Die Casting, and Gravity Die Casting, we offer the capability to automatically apply various venting techniques such as point venting, linear(insert vents), and surface venting (3D printed vents). This feature ensure an accurate input setting of air evacuation in the simulation process, resulting in more precise defect prediction and correction, thereby improving  the quality of the final cast.

At CastCAD, we provide ongoing support and continuously update our technologies to stay at the forefront of casting innovation. Our goal is to ensure that our endusers always have access to the most advanced and effective mold filling solutions available.

Thermal Stress Simulation

Solutions for Managing Thermal Stress in Casting

We excel in addressing the complexities of thermal stress in the casting process. Our thermal stress simulation solutions, encompassing both static and dynamic modeling, are designed to provide in-depth analysis and management of thermal stresses during casting. This approach helps us understand the behaviour of mold and part under thermal load.

Static and Dynamic Thermal Stress Modeling

Our static thermal stress modeling provides valuable insights into several key aspects of the casting process. This includes understanding how the mold might distort, identifying where and why flash formation occurs, and assessing residual stresses in both the casting and mold. It also helps us pinpoint potential cracking areas in the mold and factors that could affect the mold's lifespan.

Expanding on this, our dynamic thermal stress modeling brings in the analysis of the cast part itself. It calculates stress and strain throughout the entire casting process.
This comprehensive approach enables us to predict how the part might distort or contract, assess the gap between the part and mold accurately, and fine-tune the heat transfer coefficients at their interface. These insights are vital for ensuring the dimensional stability of the part and enhancing the accuracy of our solidification simulations.

Comprehensive Thermal Stress Simulation Capabilities

From initial pouring to final cooling, thermal stress simulations monitor temperature variations and stress development, pinpointing potential risks and suggesting necessary improvement.

Real-Time Insights for Optimal Outcomes

Employing advanced algorithms, our simulations offer insights into the thermal behavior of both the mold and the cast part. This enables immediate adjustments, reducing defects and ensuring the highest quality and accuracy of the final product.

Sustainable, Cost-Effective, and Accurate

Aligned with our commitment to sustainability and cost-efficiency, our thermal stress simulation solutions aim to increase mold lifetime, minimize waste and reduce production cost. By accurately predicting and managing thermal stresses, we help avoid rework and reduce mold maintenance, contributing to both environmental and economic sustainability. Furthermore, the accuracy of our simulations improves the demensional stability and accuracy of the cast parts, enhancing overall product quality.

FEA-Based Solver and Innovative Quick Mesh Generation

Our thermal stress analysis utilizes an FEA-based solver, and we have developed an innovative quick mesh generation method specifically for casting thermal stress analyses. Our preprocessor provides an easy and quick simulation setup, streamlining the process and enhancing efficiency.
