Arena-Flow is CAE software for sand core engineering
Arena-flow is the only foundry engineering software which uses the revolutionary Computational Particle Fluid Dynamics (CPFD) technology to accurately predict sand core filling, miss-fills, density variations and curing.
Technology
Sand casting challenges
Various sand casting processes have been in use for thousands of years. As castings have matured so has the technology used to make them. New Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) technology is now available which enables you to simulate:
- Sand core filling, miss-fills and density variations
- Cold-box core blowing / shooting
- Shell core blowing / shooting
- Cold-box curing (gassing)
- Magazine behavior

Benefits
Cost reduction
Consistent core quality is a prerequisite for achievingcontrollable casting quality. Sub-optimal sand casting processes cost money. New Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE)technology is now available which enables you to:
- Gain insight into costly core-related casting defects
- Reduce new tooling startup costs
- Optimize cycle time and consumable usage
- Minimize capital costs
- Minimize scrap
- Reduce down time and tooling maintenance costs
