Non Ferrous References

Please read quotes from MAGMA users and how they, with the help of casting process simulation, realize optimizations especially in the area of non ferrous casting.

Methodical Assessment of Different Casting Layouts

At ZI in Bergzabern, Germany, the new virtual experimentation capabilities in MAGMASOFT® were recently used to make a successful comparison of different production alternatives for a gear housing.

Optimization for an Exhaust Manifold

Heunisch-Guss has been using MAGMA5 for years as part of its preventative quality management system, to ensure a timely analysis of casting layouts and possible defect sources.

Chongqing Dajiang Millison Optimizes Die Casting Bracket Production

For Chongqing Dajiang Millison (CDM), the targets in production are clear: fast product development, reliable manufacturing processes and optimized product yield. These objectives apply for a great variety of cast parts.

DGS Produces One of the Largest Die Cast Parts Worldwide

Each hour, the sun radiates enough energy onto the earth to cover the annual energy demand of the whole world population. For better exploitation of this solar energy, DGS Druckguss Systeme AG, St. Gallen, Switzerland, produces frames for hot water solar panels. Recently, the production of these frames was changed from welded extrusion molded parts to aluminum die castings. The success of this change was so noteworthy that the new frame received a ”Special Recognition“ award in the International 2014 Aluminum Die Casting Competition.

Surya TOTO: Taking an Unusual Approach

The Surya TOTO engineering division was recently challenged to cast something they had never produced before. Although cast components for thermostats are successfully produced using copper base alloys in the low pressure die casting process on a daily basis at Surya TOTO, this new model was significantly different.
