SIMULATION STEPS - Create 3D models

- Mesh

- Precast

- Run

- Viewcast

1. Create 3D models

Optionally, you can use : PRO, UNX, CATIA...

To perform simulation requires three main components

+ Fixed mold

+ castings

+ mobile mold

2.Mesh. Perform detailed mesh in turn drew. The mesh is the most difficult stages of procast When meshing need to pay attention to your product

For example: Your casting edges, or into such 1mm thick. the grid can not be> 1 mm. Because the mesh will fail. But smaller mesh than the machine running slowly. So the grid mesh size depends on how much detail and the ability of your computer.

2.Precast.

Attached material for molding, casting

---------------------

Determining heat transfer mold casting (interface)

------------------------

Page 7: ProCAST-Step by Step

Determination of boundary conditions, such as temperature, velocity on heat transfer metal mold environment, temperature cooling system .....

-----------------------------------

Page 8: ProCAST-Step by Step

Set the gravitational acceleration

------------------

Page 9: ProCAST-Step by Step

Set initial conditions: initial temperature of the mold, casting .... .. ..

---------------

Page 10: ProCAST-Step by Step

Set to run the simulation conditions: flow, cycles, stress, or micro-structure

After you finish setting the parameters save it and run

The flow and temperature field.
