ESI ProCAST 2018.0 Suite Linux

ESI Group, pioneer and world-leading solution provider in Virtual Prototyping for manufacturing industries, announces the new version of ESI ProCAST 2018.0 Suite is a foundry simulation software, providing coupled thermal-flow-stress analysis, along with unique metallurgical capabilities, for all your casting processes and castable alloys.


ProCAST software is an advanced and complete casting processes simulation tool which is the result of more than 20 years of collaboration with major industrial partners and academic institutions all over the world. Using ProCAST allows for easier engineering and manufacturing throughout the process.

ProCAST simulation software offers an extensive suite of modules and foundry tools to meet your most challenging industrial requirements. ProCAST software, based on powerful Finite Element Technology, is well suited to also predict distortions and residual stresses and can address more specific processes like semi-solid, core blowing, centrifugal, lost foam and continuous casting. ProCAST manufacturing casting tools are some of the most powerful in the industry today, and the robust ProCAST engineering gives you the tools to perform evaluations of all casting processes, for all castable alloys.

FAR was producing successfully an automotive oil pump on a single cavity die using a Colosio 560 tons DCM. It was required to increase the production, and hence the primary idea was to move into a double cavity die. Emperical calculations suggested to use a 1'200 ton machine. Ecotre, ESI & Colosio came together to increase high fidelity level of ESI ProCAST, by integrating simulation & diecasting machine, to be sure to choose the right sized machine and achieve minimum cost production. This innovation together with a Fondarex vacuum system was virtually tried in ESI ProCAST to achieve a top quality casting. Simulation suggested to opt for a 750 ton machine rather than 1'200 tons as proposed by emperical calculations.


ESI Group is a leading innovator in Virtual Prototyping software and services. Specialist in material physics, ESI has developed a unique proficiency in helping industrial manufacturers replace physical prototypes by virtually replicating the fabrication, assembly and testing of products in different environments. Today, coupled with Virtual Reality, animated by systems models, and benefiting from data analytics, Virtual Prototyping becomes immersive and interactive: ESI’s clients can bring their products to life, ensuring reliable performance, serviceability and maintainability. ESI solutions help world-leading OEM’s and innovative companies make sure that their products will pass certification tests - before any physical prototype is built - and that new products are competitive in their market space. Virtual Prototyping addresses the emerging need for products to be smart and autonomous and supports industrial manufacturers in their digital transformation.
