By analyzing and visualizing the flow of molten metal into the mold and the solidification process, we can avoid casting defects at the initial design stage.
● This is a design support CAE tool that contributes to reducing the number of trial productions, shortening production time, and cutting costs. ● The results developed over approximately seven years by consolidating the know-how of veteran engineers from over 30 foundries in the joint industry-academia project "Casting CAE Research Group (Stefan)" at Tohoku University have been commercialized through Tohoku Techno Arch Co., Ltd., a technology transfer organization (TLO), and are being used by many users as a highly reliable casting simulation system. ● With high technology and reliability, it boasts the top market share in domestic casting software, and its casting technology received the Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology Award at the 8th Industry-Academia-Government Collaboration Achievement Awards. ● High-speed analysis: The fastest casting simulation running on a personal computer ~ It analyzes a variety of casting processes quickly and with high precision ~ ● Ease of use: A sophisticated operating system based on the results of industry-academia collaboration ~ It enables smooth operations in a common operating environment ~ ● High-speed analysis: The reliability and evolution of "ADSTEFAN" supported by universities and users ~ We have established cutting-edge research and development along with a comprehensive support system ~
