Without having to physically build this system we can refine and perfect the casting process before we even reach the foundry. We can also virtually test how different aluminium alloys will work in each system allowing us to optimise the structure and properties of the casting.
In this simulation, we can see any potential defects that we normally wouldn’t be able to see until the first casting is made. With MAGMA 5 you can simulate how this running system will look and perform. Once this system is built, we have to run our necessary tests to look for defects, performance issues and casting structure. Essentially, this is a method for pouring aluminium into one of our moulds. For a start, with a traditional CAD model we have to develop a running system. The benefits of creating a simulation to improve casting development are numerous. What are the benefits?Īdding simulations dramatically improves the production process This data is then used to create a virtual casting design that gives us a huge amount of data to work with at our foundry. We can input quantitative objectives and our critical production variables into the software. Here’s the clever bit, MAGMA 5 works by creating a simulation of the casting. Ultimately, this technology will help us produce the highest-quality product for you whilst saving everyone involved time and money. MAGMA is the leading supplier globally of software for casting excellence and we are proud to install MAGMA 5 in our aluminium foundry.
MAGMA 5 is the latest software available from MAGMA that optimises the casting process, improves production methods and helps Harrison Castings’ quest to produce defect-free castings.
