Sarginsons Improve Castings

Casting Is All Variables

Castings are susceptible to an enormous number of variables which means any change to the process, however slight, can cause the casting to deviate from the required geometry and mechanical properties. And moving from casting prototypes, in sand, to full scale production with hard tools is riven with potential critical variabilities.

Virtual Testing Is Vital

The ability to accurately simulate the TYE and fatigue of a casting is a good starting point for remediation, but augmented solidification studies, heat treatment simulations and mechanically accurate sand castings are also a vital part in determining the correct solution. Where component design is thought to be problematic Sarginsons unique DfM+ is also invaluable.

The Industrialisation Hub

Sarginsons Industrialisation Hub is designed to predominately act as a precursor to principal production. The idea is that simulations, testing, and ramp up volumes can be used to reduce variability, before full production. Whilst this approach can be used to avoid production issues, it is also capable of quickly resolving issues that are already in production.

Key Points

• Simulations Simplify Problem Resolution

• Tooling Technologies Have Advanced

• Rapid Iterative Design Refines Options

• Huge Cost and Quality Economies

• No Need To Stop Production
