solidThinking has released a new version of Click2Cast, its casting simulation technology. According to the company, Click2Cast is designed for beginners and experts alike to predict the manufacturing feasibility of a product's early design process—minimizing downstream design change orders and retooling costs.

Key updates in the Click2Cast 4.0 release include:

  • Simple process template for investment casting (also called lost-wax or precision casting)
  • Easy modeling for inserts, chillers, sleeves and multiple-mold-materials
  • Improved visualization of porosity including section cuts
  • Newly integrated FEA meshing for improved geometry capture
"Click2Cast 4.0 has everything required to make high quality products, with just five steps," says Martin Solina, product manager of Click2Cast. "Our focus is to delight the customers with fast, easy and accurate answers while keeping the solution affordable. We have been working very hard to give access to casting feasibility simulation to product designers, and manufacturing engineers, so they can have a common purpose and framework to produce great and defect-free products for their customers."
