MAGMASOFT® 6.1 introduces a wide range of additional features and enhancements that make casting simulation even more efficient and precise.

• Rotate the model through a defined angle.
  MAGMASOFT® 6.1 now displays the angle while you are rotating. "Ctrl" will rotate with a fixed angle of 15 degrees. With "Ctrl + Shift", you rotate by 0.5 degrees. You can thus set the angle precisely to your needs.
• Set the background color separately for each perspective.
• New products and updates in the 'FOSECO Pro Module' and new 'Çukurova' database
  The expanded feeder databases in MAGMASOFT® 6.1 include updated products in the 'FOSECO Pro Module', featuring 'Çukurova' feeder sleeves for the first time. This addition provides users with access to the latest developments in feeder technology, broadening the range of feeder solutions available during simulations.
• Derivation of cooling channels: 'Channel Assistant'
  For simulating permanent mold processes, a new channel assistant has been integrated. This tool automatically detects voids in the mold geometry and generates cooling channels, streamlining the integration of cooling channels while improving the overall temperature control throughout the casting process.
  
• Add several materials with different IDs at the same time with the new 'Add Materials' feature.
• Wrap a volume with the new 'Volume Wrap' function.
  The new 'Volume Wrap' function allows users to group several volumes into a geometric shell, significantly improving the display of results and supporting better analysis and more effective optimization of process parameters.
• Count the number of tracer particles with 'Tracer Count'.
  A new particle counting feature, available in all process modules and products, tracks selected tracer particles. For example, users can localize unwanted inclusions in the casting at an early stage. The results can be visualized over time and contribute to more effective quality assurance.
  
• New measurement methods: 'Geometric Dimensions' & 'Distance'
  For users of MAGMAstress analyzing casting distortion, a new 'Geometric Dimensions' measurement mode has been introduced. This feature simplifies the evaluation process by enabling direct measurement of distances, flatness and roundness during result assessment, considerably enhancing evaluation accuracy and ease of use.
• MAGMAinteract®
  MAGMASOFT® 6.1 has been enhanced with automatic project export functionality, significantly reducing manual effort and making critical data more accessible for MAGMAinteract®, the stand-alone, free-of-charge application for visualizing MAGMASOFT® simulation results.
  
  • Generate MAGMAinteract^® files automatically
  • "STL viewer" – possibility of viewing .stl files in MAGMAinteract^®
  • New color scales – 'Wide spread' scale and 'Wide spread chroma' scale available in MAGMAinteract^®
