SOLIDCast

Capture the power of natural solidification thermal analyses within an affordable and capable software package. CAPlite features a step-by-step graphical interface, making it ideal even for those not experienced in casting software. Starting with a CAD design, CAPlite guides you through every step, from meshing to post-processing. Natural solidifications are effective thermal simulation that gives results within minutes. From die casting to sand casting, CAPlite can identify problems for all casting types. The simplicity of natural solidifications enables them to augment your entire casting operation at every stage: design risers, gating, and chill configurations to identify defects, or simply help visualize the otherwise abstract process of solidification. CAPlite comes with the power of natural solidifications plus more to give you the tools you need to improve your castings at a fraction of the cost.

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.
