[Hongkong-6th June, 2016] C3P Software, a pioneer supplier of CAX & PLM solution for industrial manufacturing processes, announces to release Cast-Designer V7.0. The innovation solution provides unique products to redefine competitiveness for casting business.
Cast-Designer V7.0 is a major release version. Over 120 improvements are included with this release, which was developed with an emphasis on increasing the efficiency for evaluating design and simulation results. Cast-Designer V7.0 aims to further streamline casting engineer's design and simulation workflows by enabling them to make fast plans and simulations, avoid the common mistake, and analyze simulation results quickly and more effectively.
With Cast-Designer V7.0, the user's work environment upgraded from a chain to a network. The work flow chart is not only the standard elements of Cast-Designer, like DFM (Design for Manufacturing), Gating system design, Simulation and Production, but also the automatic optimization to help users find the best answer. More ever, the optimization can control any elements and parameters of the network. This is a breakthrough design!
Base on the success of CFD solver in Cast-Designer V6.4, the new generation CFD solver in Cast-Designer V7.0 become more powerful and in better performance. Now, almost casting process could be simulated in the CFD solver with high accuracy, like gravity casting with filter, the centrifugal casting in horizontal or vertical as well as the HPDC and LPDC process. The CFD solver can handle the complex free surface problem, like surface tension, interface between the casting and mould. More ever, the Cast-Designer CFD solver could be fully couple to the existed Cast-Designer FEM solver for thermal, stress and microstructure simulation.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the intelligence exhibited by machines. In computer science, an ideal "intelligent" machine is a flexible rational agent that perceives its environment and takes actions that maximize its chance of success at an arbitrary goal. Modern examples of AI include computers that can beat professional players at Chess and Go, and self-driving cars that navigate crowded city streets.
Cast-Designer V7.0 with fully integrated capabilities for virtual design of experiments and automatic optimization, it could be applied to all casting processes. Thanks to the innovation technology of Cast-Designer, such optimization could be applied to any parameters, whatever the geometry parameters, boundary condition parameters, material parameters or the simulation control parameters.
Cast-Designer optimizer is the software for multi-criteria nonlinear optimization in the last EA MOO technology. The main purpose of the system is to relieve a designer or researcher of the sufficiently complex and very labour-intensive process of searching for optimal system design parameters which simultaneously meet a great number of sometimes controversial requirements.
