HIGHLIGHTS OF MAGMAiron 5.5
Quantitative prediction of shrinkage related defects with a new powerful feeding model taking into account
- Convective heat transport during solidification
- The metallurgical state of the melt
- Inoculation effects on precipitated eutectic graphite
- Atmospheric and local metallostatic pressure on feeding flow
- Graphite expansion and austenite shrinkage
- Flow resistance in mushy zones during solidification
- Impact of mold stability on porosity
MAIN BENEFITS of MAGMAiron 5.5
MAGMAiron quantitatively predicts microstructure and porosity for cast iron as a function of alloy composition, metallurgical state of the melt and inoculation effects and offers
- Increased safety by accurately predicting porosities
- Robust and optimized gating and feeding designs
- Reduced cost by avoiding scrap through optimized process parameters
- Availability by addressing metallurgical and material specifics for grey, ductile and compacted cast iron grades
