General Improvements for All Casting Processes

 (c) MAGMA GmbH

MAGMASOFT® 6.1 offers numerous innovations that increase efficiency in the mapping of all casting processes. With advanced simulation, analysis and optimization tools, the software enables the precise evaluation and optimization of manufacturing processes, supported by new material databases, innovative functions and seamless integration with other applications.

Highlights:

  • Material databases: extensive databases for considering the product behavior of different auxiliary materials, including an extended Foseco PRO Module and new Çukurova feeder datasets
  • New measurement mode: The 'Geometric Dimensions' mode in MAGMAstress facilitates the measurement of distances, flatness and roundness for the evaluation of casting distortions.
  • 'Tracer count': Counts particles in the melt in predefined areas and enables the early localization of unwanted inclusions as well as the quantitative comparison of gating and risering systems.
  • 'Channel Assistant': automatic generation of cooling channels from voids in the mold geometry to improve temperature control in permanent mold casting processes
  • 'Volume Wrap': Groups several volumes into a geometric shell for detailed simulation results and targeted process optimization.
  • Automatic export for MAGMAinteract®: Project results and STL geometries can be exported automatically to facilitate the communication of results.

These enhancements confirm MAGMA's commitment to casting excellence by significantly expanding the capabilities of casting process simulation and supporting efficiency, precision and sustainability in manufacturing.
