The traditional method has been used to the foundry technique for the melt block mobile plate. The pouring position,the parting face and some of the casting parameters were determined, such as the allowance for finish, stripping taper, the rate of shrinkage and soon on. The commercial casting simulation software was introduced into the casting process, the filling and solidification process were calculated by it. The results shown that there are some shrinkage exists in the original technique and the filling process were inordinate. The gating system was optimized and according to the simulation results, the shrinkages in the original technique were eliminated and the filling process is smoothly which could help the designer to make a correct determination.

Using ProCast casting simulation software, the solidification process of the Aluminum Alloy steel casting was simulated according to its scene casting process, and the shrinkage porosity defect was forecasted. Based on the simulation, the casting technology was improved using the orthogonal test. An optimized plan was obtained, which provided a reference for the actual production of the casting.

In this paper, the die-casting processing of aluminum alloy was simulated by casting simulation software. The mould filling and solidification process of aluminum alloy die-casting in different cast temperature and shot velocity were investigated. Aiming at achieving the best casting process, this research gave emphasis on analysis the influence of cast temperature and shot velocity to the process of mould filling, temperature field of casting part during filling and solidification, shrinkage and porosity. To improve the process, increase ingate area, carry on the simulation, and analyze the optimal casting parameters.

Using the ProCast casting simulation software to make squeeze casting process simulation and analysis of the solidification process of the air conditioning compressor front cover and predict the location of gas volumes and shrinkage defects in the filling process. When adjusted the process parameters, volumes gas defects were eliminated, but there was still shrinkage occurs in the center. When imposed a secondary pressure on the central part, shrinkage was eliminated.

The liquid metal filling and solidification process of aluminum engine cylinder head in different gating system during casting process was simulated by casting simulation software MAGMAsoft. The simulation results showed that the best pouring process contains the bottom note type casting and the placement of combustion chamber side, so that we could obtain a simple modeling process, and significantly shorten the trial production cycle, as well as the trial cost of the piston, and improve the quality of the cylinder head.

Magnesium alloy has widely been used in automotive sector due to its light weight, low density, high stiffness, and excellent casting performance and easy to recover and utilize. The magnesium alloy automotive engine cylinder cover was chosen as researching object to simulate its die casting filling process based on die casting filling process theory and numerical simulation analysis software JSCAST. The simulation results show that the utilization of die-casting simulation software for improving product quality and production efficiency has certain significance during the production of magnesium alloy die casting process.

At present, pulley produced in China has been able to meet the demand of domestic and international markets. But there are many problem of the pulley industry in our country, such as too many production enterprises and the low level of export products. And as components of drive system are light weight and raw material price of pulley casting are rising, manufacturing requirements of the pulley are also more and more high. Aiming at the casting defects of pulley that enterprise current product, pulley casting blank model of common material HT250 be made by three-dimension software, numerical simulation of filling and solidification process for pulley sand casting by the casting simulation software Procast, the size and location of the various casting defects were forecasted and analyzed, reflecting the pulley filling and solidification process of the actual situation, due to the thicker pulley rim and less heat dissipation, position of shrinkage is close to the middle of rim [, a method of eliminating defects is proposed to realize sequential solidification, and thus to minimize porosity shrinkage and improve casting performance and reduce casting time and reduce production costs.

There are many advantages in producing forklift box through the LFC. However, we found shrinkage porosity defects in the interior of castings through simulating the original process by ProCAST casting simulation software. Therefore, we analyzed the defects and improved the technology program. firstly, increased riser in position of shrinkage, Secondly, changed the filling’s way, lastly, selected the best temperature and vacuum by the orthogonal experiment and determined the best technology solution. we found the shrinkage porosity defects have been removed by the improved process. We found the production consistent with the simulation results through verification. Therefore we verify the accuracy of the ProCAST.

In order to solve production defects such as shrinkage and porosity inside a certain train coupler casting in Anhui Xinhong Machinery Co.,Ltd., the main reasons of defects are found through the process of CAE simulation analysis and physical X ray detection to determine the location and morphology of casting defects and to reflect the actual situation of coupler filling and solidification process. The main reasons are found as follows: uneven thickness of casting structure, insufficient original gating and feeding system and etc. Through the process optimization and apply multidimensional vibration, then test validation, the train coupler casting which meets the technical requirements has been successfully produced, ensuring the smooth mass production of the company. ProCAST numerical simulation results have confirmed the rationality of the proposed work in optimization process measures in reducing and eliminating the shrinkage defects.

To obtain an A356 aluminum alloy casting with a uniform structure and no internal shrinkage defects, ProCAST software is used to set different filling and solidification process parameters for an A356 aluminum alloy casting with large wall thickness differences, And multiple simulations are conducted to obtain optimized casting process; then, based on the process, the microstructure of the thickest and thinnest part of the casting are simulated. The size, morphology, and distribution of the simulated microstructure of the thinnest part and the thickest part of the casting are very similar. The simulated microstructure is similar to that of the actual casting. This shows that castings with uniform structure and no internal shrinkage defects can be obtained through the optimized casting process .
