Abstract:
The computer simulation of CAE is helpftil to the casting process design of complex cast iron.The analysis results of mold filling and solidification provide important basis for the process design.A good casting system is a necessary condition for obtaining high quality castings.The MAGMA solidification simulation software was used to ductile iron optimize a housing casting.The results show that in the production process,the parts are improved according to the simulation optimization results,and the qualified QT550-6 housing casting is successfully developed.
