Additive Manufacturing

Additive Manufacturing consists of a set of processes for the creation of components, starting from their 3D CAD models, through the binding of material through layer overlapping, then proceeding on the contrary to traditional subtractive processes to remove swarf.

DEFORM allows you to design components in 3D printing that meet dimensional and structural requirements, taking account of the specificity of the selected printing technology.

DEFORM

DEFORM was created in 1980 by the American company SFTC and is dedicated to the simulation of massive metal deformation processes, such as forging, deep drawing, heading, extrusion, rolling, machining and others.

DEFORM software reduces production starting times, allowing the designer to simulate different design solutions for making die and the process, before machining the equipment and the sampling phase.

DEFORM allows designers to streamline the process saving the company money, due to the quality improvement of the components and less production rejects.

Thanks to the software QuikCAST Light, QuikCAST, ProCAST you can virtually produce the components, measuring their quality, performance and costs.

With simulation software, the real sampling is positive the first time round. The prediction of the product is confirmed at the time of sampling.

ProCAST

The QuikCAST Light, QuikCAST and ProCAST casting simulators are manufactured by ESI-Group, a French company which from the 70s to date has enjoyed enormous growth on the international market, with production plants in over 30 countries with a total of 1,300 employees. The two software programs originated in 1982. ProCAST was created in the USA by a satellite company of NASA, acquired by ESI-Group in 2003; while QuikCAST is acquired by ESI-Group in the 90s by the French Pechiney.
ESI-Group is the only company in the world to produce two simulators for foundry and steelworks.

QuikCAST Light, QuikCAST and ProCAST simulate the casting process using two different technologies:
-ProCAST: Finite Elements technology (FEM): at the state-of-the-art is absolutely the most refined and efficient.
-QuikCAST Light/QuikCAST.: Finite Differences or Control volumes technology (FDM): it is a good compromise between cost and performance.
