Process Simulation from ASK Chemicals Optimizes Casting Processes
Known as a supplier for innovative
foundry chemicals, ASK Chemicals, Hilden, offers not only a diverse prod- uct portfolio but also expertise in the simulation of casting processes. ASK is now providing a comprehensive service package for foundries, thereby creating environmental and economic optimiza- tion potential for the various stages of the casting process. The early application of casting pro-
cess simulation plays a key role in sus- tainability for foundries. Casting process simulations allow for depiction and ad- justment of dynamic processes, and ef- ficient changes to them, in the planning stage as well as in live operations. Simulation is a separate service at ASK Chimicals designed for all process- oriented foundries. It delivers custom concepts that provide environmental and economic solutions for foundries – pre- cisely tuned to their process parameters. Using state-of-the-art
technology, the application analyzes and simulates processes such as core shoot-

ing, core gassing and dehydration, along with mold filling and solidification. “This allows us to develop a secure foun- dation for risk-free production decisions in the casting process,” explains Andrè Gerhards, project manager, technical as- sistance and simulation. Simulation also allows for an exact
description of the cast part’s quality even before production commences. Virtual prototypes created in this manner en- able foundries to reduce product devel- opment costs, shorten preparation times and enhance product quality.
