HIGHLIGHTS OF MAGMAiron 5.5

Quantitative prediction of shrinkage related defects with a new powerful feeding model taking into account

• Convective heat transport during solidification
• The metallurgical state of the melt
• Inoculation effects on precipitated eutectic graphite
• Atmospheric and local metallostatic pressure on feeding flow
• Graphite expansion and austenite shrinkage
• Flow resistance in mushy zones during solidification
• Impact of mold stability on porosity

MAIN BENEFITS of MAGMAiron 5.5

MAGMAiron quantitatively predicts microstructure and porosity for cast iron as a function of alloy composition, metallurgical state of the melt and inoculation effects and offers

• Increased safety by accurately predicting porosities
• Robust and optimized gating and feeding designs
• Reduced cost by avoiding scrap through optimized process parameters
• Availability by addressing metallurgical and material specifics for grey, ductile and compacted cast iron grades
