Investment Casting
Investment Casting
Investment casting produces complex, near-net-shape parts, but its ceramic shell and often-reactive alloys present unique challenges. Our ProCAST simulation services are tailored to ensure complete filling of intricate details, prevent shell cracking, and produce sound, high-integrity castings for aerospace, medical, and defense applications.
Services
Key Service Focus :
- Filling of Thin Walls & Fine Details: Model the flow of metal through intricate geometries and thin sections to prevent mistruns and ensure complete replication of the pattern.
- Microporosity & Grain Structure: For superalloys and titanium, predict microporosity and model grain structure evolution for directional and single-crystal solidification processes.
- Gating & Pouring Optimization: Design effective cluster layouts and gating systems to minimize turbulence, reduce scrap, and improve yield for high-value components.
- Solidification Shrinkage in Complex Geometries: Accurately locate micro-shrinkage in hard-to-feed areas like internal passages and thin-to-thick section transitions.
