CUE UC Rec icung (Prediction and Ceroing) Casting Product Generating Shell Mold in JSCAST Up to three different types of Shell mold material and layers can be defined with different thermo-physical properties and mesh easily in JSCAST. CAST sorncom was a Lost Foam Casting In the lost foam casting process in JSCAST, multiple foamed-resin materials (or pattern materials) with different gasification properties and material properties are sometimes used to control mold filling patterns (or change the shape of the melt front), and Consequently to prevent casting defects such as cold shuts and residues, JSCAST makes it possible to set simulation conditions loser to real situations,and to see the effects of multiple usage of pattern materials with different properties onmold filing patterns and formations of casting defects. In the left picture, the molten metal is poured onto the two foams having the same density in the mold cavity. In the right picture, two foams which have different densities are used in the mold cavity. You can simulate the different behavior of the foams with different densities you use in the foundry with JSCAST. Lost Foam Casting (Mold Filling and Solidification) ‘Simulates how the foam pattern is replaced by liquid metal during mold filing Considers the effects of vacuum suction and permeability of sand mold and coating, Helps users to decrease flow-related defects and optimize casting designs.
