Foundry process simulation finally becomes predictive!
As in the workshop, you dress the molds according to the desired type and thickness, you manage the cycle times, you control moving part opening and closing as well as the scales, you control the stopper rods, etc.
A "Filling & Solidification" simulation performed at any time and with a single software application
Casting simulation with THERCAST® software makes it possible to view part filling and solidification from a different perspective.
Indeed, the software makes it possible to account for shrinkage leading to local air gaps, and as such, for any complexities of part cooling in the mold. Thus, the heat exchanges from solidification are fully taken into account. They are determined automatically by the solution and no longer require multiple tests / errors to match reality.
In particular, they are determined by the various mold dressings during shell casting, or by local surface forces during pressure die casting, and by the roughness of the sand in contact with an insert or the lower and upper parts according to the simulated method.
Whatever your technology used, THERCAST® can assist you
Sand casting |
||
![]() |
THERCAST® has a dedicated template that simulates the casting of your alloy in a sand mold with inserts taken into account if necessary. |
Shell mold gravity casting |
||
THERCAST® has a template dedicated to shell casting. |
Low-pressure die casting |
||
![]() |
THERCAST® has a low-pressure die casting-specific template. |
High-pressure die casting |
||
![]() |
During the high-pressure die casting process, THERCAST®, thanks to its dedicated template, can take into account the pouring phase of the metal into the container by the ladle. Similarly, all the part-filling stages are simulated: |
Centrifugal casting |
