Esi Procast v2014.0 And Visual Environment v9.6/ (x64)



Language: English, French
ProCAST software package can solve almost any technological problems associated with casting metal!


ProCAST allows to simulate any casting technology:
any gravity-fill (chill casting in CBC and CTS, investment casting, etc.);
-casting under controlled pressure (high pressure die casting, low-pressure casting, counterpressure casting with,
suction vacuum molding, etc.);
-centrifugal casting;
-continuous casting;
-lost foam casting.
ProCAST program has a great built-in generator 2D and 3D grids, allowing to obtain the most correct computational grid in the minimum time. There is a built chemical calculator, through which you can get all the necessary heat-physical properties of any alloy directly in the program!
ProCAST program to determine:
distribution of thermal fields in the casting and form;
-assess the level of the stresses in the casting and metal snap
lets count-cyclical loads (eg injection molding).
ProCAST meets the challenges of production
Based on the proven technology of finite element, ProCAST is a complete solution that covers a wide range of casting metals and alloys.
Cover all production tasks for a wide range of casting processes.
Casting into the ground, gravity, inclined casting
Key success factors in the gravity casting focus on optimizing the runner system and except for areas possible shrinkage.
Investment casting, shell molding
ProCAST well suited for solving the problem of investment casting. For example, ProCAST can automatically generate a grid, reflecting shell mold, allows uniform thickness and layering.
This takes into account thermal radiation from shadowing effects, which are important for high-temperature alloys. ProCAST allows modeling mold filling, solidification and microstructure formation. Location risers and use of insulation or exothermic inlets, their influence on shrinkage can be studied on the computer and rendered on the screen for optimal part quality.
Gravity die casting, low pressure
To actually play the plant conditions can be carried out simulation cycles to form a state where the temperature conditions will be released in stationary mode. The calculated temperature fields allow to calculate mold filling and solidification of the casting.
Process parameters can be adjusted so that it has reached an optimal quality of the process for the shortest time.
Chill casting under high pressure
ProCAST allows to solve specific tasks such high pressure die casting and stamping as a liquid casting semisolid phase. Optimal piston velocity profiles, construction of gates and poured out can be easily identified in the simulation even for thin-walled parts. Thermomechanical cycles die can be calculated not only to increase its life cycle, but also to increase productivity, thereby reducing risks and costs.

Visual-Environment

Visual-Environment-is an integrated package of pre-and post-processor that can operate simultaneously
singly or in the overall environment of other products ESI Group. Visual-Environment allows you to prepare a model for the calculation of programs from ESI Groupe, and for CAE-CFD prgogramm from other manufacturers
Visual-Mesh is a complete meshing tool which supports CAD Import, 2D and 3D Meshing and Editing features. Some of the features which work on "mesh only" will be available in Visual-Crash PAM context.
Visual-Crash PAM (VCP), which is one of the contexts in Visual-Environment, provides PAM-CRASH users with fast iteration and rapid model revision process, from data input to visualization for crashworthiness simulation and design. This environment provides quick model browsing, advanced mesh editing capabilities and rapid graphical assembly of system models. VCP allows graphical creation, modification and deletion of contacts, materials, constraints, control cards and all crash entities. In VCP, you are provided with tools for checking model quality and simulation parameters prior to launching calculations with the Solver. Using these tools helps in correcting errors and fine-tuning the model and simulation before submitting it to a solver, thus saving time and resources.
Visual-Safe is a context in Visual-Environment, dedicated to Safety utilities. High productivity tools such as advanced dummy positioning, seat morphing, belt fitting and airbag folding are provided in this context.
Visual-Safe MAD (VSM) is a complete, efficient and productive CAE environment for multi-body and finite element occupant safety simulations using Madymo. It utilizes the multi-window/multi-model/multi-application environment of Visual-Environment very efficiently. It provides complete flexibility of working for both the experienced and the novice Madymo users alike. It incorporates a vast database of customer requirements and feedback gathered over a decade.
Visual-Medysa guides PAM-MEDYSA 2G users in building system models for design optimization and performance validation of complex mechanical systems. Mechanical systems such as engine, tires, chassis, suspensions, and machinery transmissions, can be modeled with ease in this environment. High Velocity Impact (HVI) simulation is used to analyze the dynamic behavior of materials under very high speed impacts. Visual-HVI supports PAM-SHOCK HVI user in modeling such material data easily. This typically finds applications in aerospace where we need to understand the damage suffered by a spacecraft when it encounters space debris, such as micro-meteoroids.
Visual-Viewer is the new generation Post Processing tool with state-of-art Descriptionting utility. This caters to the requirements of the CAE community. Visual-Viewer is built on the multi page / multiDescription environment, which enables the user to group his data into pages and Descriptions. Visual-Viewer is designed with intuitive and sleek user interface with Windows look and feel. Complete session can be re-run without loss of any data.
Visual-Viewer is completely command driven which enables the user to execute commands at ease. Visual-Viewer is completely built on multi-page and multi-Description environment. The user has the freedom to create any number of pages and to have upto 16 windows in a single page. These windows can be Description, animation, video, model or drawing block windows. The entire snapshot of the product can be saved as a template and restored any time.
Visual-Process Executive"s Process-oriented philosophy brings a compelling advantage to PAM-CRASH users to build processes quickly by customizing GUIs and to execute them.
