The PoligonSoft computer modeling system for casting processes is a professional tool for technologists and foundry workers, designed to predict and analyze the causes of defects at the design stage of the casting mold and the gating and riser system.
A virtual foundry workshop where the main steps of the casting technology can be developed, analyzed, and adjusted in a short period of time and without additional costs.
Casting simulations course for beginners
Introductory course on casting simulation. Learn to use PoligonSoft to optimize processes and improve the quality of cast parts.
Lesson 1 "Mesh creating" with Poligonsoft.
In the first lesson, we will build a finite element mesh for our casting. We will learn the main requirements for a reliable simulation.
Lesson 2 "Solidification Dinamics and Porosity"
In the second lesson, we are going to learn how to input the necessary data to perform a simulation of steel casting in a sand mold.
Lesson 3 "Mold filling and stress-strain state"
Calculation of the mold filling with melt and the stresses and strains in the casting. We carefully examine all necessary parameters and data.
