You are now faced with the dilemma of finding out that your first off-tool parts have pinholes, shrinkage or hot spots. You have two options: either ship the parts to an unhappy customer, or go back to the design phase to fix the problem and make sure it is free of defects. It is important to ensure that your gating design is robust against process variations, as this is an important step in the casting development timeline. ESI ProCAST allows you to cast parts accurately the first time. You can meet your deadlines and avoid costly scrap parts and late redesigns. ProCAST has been trusted by customers for decades as their primary tool for casting basics, including filling, solidification and porosity prediction. It also predicts complex issues such as deformations or residual stresses thanks to its finite element technology.

Ansys MotorCAD is a dedicated tool for electric machine design. It allows you to quickly simulate multiphysics across the entire torque-speed operating range. Motor-CAD allows engineers to evaluate motor topologies across the entire operating range. This allows them to create designs that are optimized for size, efficiency, and performance. Motor-CAD software's four modules, Emag, Therm Lab, Mech, allow multiphysics calculations to be performed quickly, iteratively, and users can move from concept to final design in a shorter time. Motor-CAD users can explore more motor topologies and fully evaluate the impact of advanced loss effects during the initial stages of an electrical mechanical design with Motor-CAD's streamlined data input process. This release features powerful new features for design optimization and multi-physics analysis, as well as system modeling for electric motors. Multiphysics simulations are fast across the entire torque-speed range.
