How CWM Assures Critical Cosmetic Success

At Chicago White Metal, we constantly invest in advanced technologies to improve the die casting process. While Magmasoft® has been used in the industry for years, it’s still considered a revolutionary technology because it reduces lead time, improves quality assurance, and saves money. The engineering team at Chicago White Metal has been using Magmasoft® software for over a decade, making a big difference in producing quality castings. 

At CWM, we have a track record of successful projects, thanks to  Magmasoft® and the hard work of our engineering team. Recently, we were tasked with casting a challenging magnesium housing for a handheld camera. Despite the complexity, our team’s dedication and the use of Magmasoft® ensured a successful outcome.

After our engineering team created the tooling design for the project, they used the advanced Magmasoft® process simulation software. Doing so enabled the CWM engineers to predict the effects of the final metal flow for the part. After a series of precise tooling design iterations and repeat simulations, the design was released for die tooling construction—the final result: a robust and well-cast part.

This is a good example of the metal flow simulation provided by the Magmasoft® software.

As illustrated in the animation above,

As illustrated in the animation above, Magmasoft® allows rapid analysis of a product’s design, tooling, and process variables before die construction. Magmasoft® is designed specifically for metal casting manufacturers. The advanced software provides incredibly realistic and detailed mapping of all involved processes.

CWM engineers believe the Magmasoft® system best predicts a die casting die design’s performance. It provides the best estimate of the metal flow results that can be expected in the final cast part.
