MAGMA Foundry Technologies, Inc.
Type of Business:
Provider of casting design/optimization engineering and process simulation software.Company Profile:
Started in the U.S. in 1991, MAGMA has been the pacesetter in defining a new direction for the Foundry Industry. Its development and use of casting process simulation has provided the opportunity for metal casters to improve quality while concurrently reducing the lead times for sound, cost effective castings. Both foundries and OEM's call on MAGMA to assist in the engineering of improved castings. Our Engineering Services Group is always available to problem solve or optimize casting designs.Product Information:
In addition to providing casting engineering expertise, MAGMA sells and supports its casting simulation software, MAGMASOFT®, for use in both production and research environments. Most every facet of the casting process can be investigated using this simulation tool.More recent developments have led to a greater understanding of such aspects as; alloy segregation, microstructure and mechanical property prediction, new casting processes such as counter pressure and thixo, and much more.
With today's computer hardware our simulation tools can be used on virtually any major operating system. And what's more, simulations today often take just hours to complete. This provides the user with quick answers for more successful up-front engineering, quality improvement, process development, and investigation of new casting designs.
