Solidification Modeling

To assure high integrity components with a minimum number of sample trials, Signicast utilizes a modeling software that accurately simulates the solidification of an investment casting. This model is constructed using an STL file, typically created from the customers CAD model. The solidification program allows Signicast engineers to identify possible problem areas of complex components before the tooling build stage. Investment casting design, gating and process parameters can be altered and tested without consuming valuable time typically used up in actual part trials.

Signicast strives for product approval with only one sample run.
