Simulation in modern quality management systems

In order to achieve continuous improvements, controlled processes and close customer-supplier relationships foundries have introduced quality management systems which, in particular, enable implementation of the automobile industry quality requirements. Computer-assisted design techniques (CAE) such as Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and simulatio...




Application of Casting Process Optimization Tools

The low pressure casting process is a well-established route for the manufacture of large safety-critical non-ferrous automotive components. While smooth, ambient mold filling allows for a high degree of control over the process, the inherently long cycle time results in low productivity. The two most commonly made parts via the low pressure pro...
