Cost Effective and High Integrity Steel Castings with MAGMASOFT^® and MAGMAsteel through

¬ Optimization of gating and risering
¬ Avoiding hot tears and crack
¬ Reduction of repair welding and machining
¬ Prediction and reduction of macrosegregation
¬ Process layout of heat treatment
¬ Prediction of process costs

MAGMASOFT^® and the MAGMAsteel Module support the lay-out and optimization of casting methoding and processing for steel castings. The production planning is supported through the automatic determination of costs and materials consumption. MAGMAsteel also supports the foundryman in laying-out his casing process. It offers the optimal ladle characteristic, provides the thermal modulus and predicts casting quality levels. MAGMAsteel also supports the evaluation of convective flows during solidification and predicts the macrosegregation quantitatively. Predicting the heat treatment enables the foundryman to control casting structures and properties through optimal process conditions.
