Foundries and investment-casting facilities searching for a tool to simulate casting processes during manufacture
About SoftCAST
SoftCAST™ is a multi-award-winning metal-casting-simulation software package for foundries and investment-casting facilities. SoftCAST™ allows engineers to simulate the behavior of the casting process during manufacture, which is often used to predict, in a virtual world, potential casting defects and quality issues within the cast part. The design modules in SoftCAST™ facilitate the easy development of both new products and new processes, and it provides options for the optimization of existing products and processes. The SoftCAST™ program is suitable for mass production, batch production, and jobbing lines. It has the capability to simulate a variety of casting complexities, including single- and multi-cavity mold designs, low to very high-weight castings, and cast sections whose thickness has no limit. The major differentiator between SoftCAST™ and our competitors’ products is that not only is SoftCAST™ a simulation program but it also has its own method design modules.
