Moreover, a new module for the simulation of as-cast local microstructures and properties of aluminum alloys is available with MAGMAnonferrous. Burn-on and penetration criteria help identify sand related surface defects. And, tracer particles can be modeled with mass and size to evaluate slag inclusions. New advanced turbulence models as well as the consideration of surface tension improve the mold filling prediction for gravity castings. New simulation capabilities MAGMA5 provides important new casting process simulation capabilities. Altogether, the process orientation of MAGMA5 sets the basis for a profitable manufacture of cast components – through improved casting layouts, achieving the required casting quality, and saving costs. This allows the user to get a complete overview of the entire manufacturing process he wants to simulate. In the process perspective, all information about the used materials, metallurgy and melting practice, production conditions and finishing processes such as heat treatment come together. This allows the complete production process from geometry input, through the design of gating, risering and tooling, on to solidification and finishing processes such as heat treatment, to be described and simulated. Integrated information and tools for simulation projects In MAGMA5, all steps that are necessary for casting process simulation can be specified and performed from a process perspective. Within the software, this is made possible through different perspectives which can be used simultaneously by the user. „First understand, then optimize“: following this standard, MAGMA5 delivers a profound understanding of casting processes that allows optimization along the complete process chain of the cast component. The software is based on more than 20 years of development, during which the Aachen based company has continued to innovate on and establish casting process simulation as a standard. MAGMA5 continues the series of MAGMASOFT® solutions used by foundries world-wide in order to optimize their cast component production. MAGMA GmbH introduces with MAGMA5 a new generation of casting process simulation.
