Magma Casting Simulation

3D models can be accepted in the SDRC or IGES format with our toolmaking base able to accept most CAD formats currently in existence.

A recent acquisition is Magmasoft, which will aid component and tool design to achieve optimum process results limiting component defects and reducing complexity of tools and extending the tool life.

Windows NT based IDEAS Artisan 4, solid modelling package, used to review customers CAD information and translate through IGES to toolmakers and Mavis simulation software.

PC based Modelling Alternative Variables In Solidification or 'Mavis' version 5.0 simulation software. The package has been developed as a design tool, which can help design castings and determine: -

If solidifying areas of a casting are likely to become isolated from feed metal;

The locations in a casting where significant solidification shrinkage is likely to be found;

The influence of feeder design and location on the pattern of solidification

The influence of insulating, exothermic or chill materials on the pattern solidification;
