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
