Casting and forging in one place. CastForge is a young trade fair that took place for the third time from June 4 to 6, 2024. It brings together the primary forming process of casting with the reshaping process of forging in a unique way. This makes it a leading trade fair for designers, buyers and sellers of metal-based products that only takes place every two years.
The German Foundry Association BDG, the Austrian Foundry Institute ÖGI and the Foundry Association of Switzerland GVS organized and held a joint casting technology conference in Salzburg on 25 and 26 April 2024. For us at Visiometa, it is an honor to have been part of it.
The annual symposium is a key event in the German-speaking world for specialists and managers from the fields of the design and development of chassis and vehicle bodies.
EUROGUSS is one of the world's most important die casting exhibitions, taking place every two years in Nuremberg. We were represented with a booth for the first time and enjoyed many productive discussions.
Vannoccio Biringuccio is considered by some as the father of the foundry industry. His ten-volume book 'De la Pirotechnia' is the first printed account of proper foundry practice.
"The art of planning and developing a casting project" was the title of a talk given by Dr. Ralf Gerke-Cantow at the foundry meet-up of the VDG regional groups for Bavaria and Hesse on October 12 in Kitzingen.
With the fifth and last event day, GIFA 2023, the world's leading trade fair for the foundry industry with around 2200 exhibitors, officially came to an end yesterday.
Over the course of this series of articles, we show how the use of fast numerical algorithms is revolutionizing the planning of casting processes. Today we will take a closer look at the geometric part optimization workflow.
Visiometa revolutionizes the foundry industry by reducing carbon emissions through optimized casting processes. By minimizing scrap rates, maximizing yield and reducing the need for physical prototypes, Visiometa helps finding sustainable solutions for a greener future.
In the latest installment of our feature series, we explain how the incredibly high computational speed of the modulus analysis helps to enable a completely new type of integrated workflow that is so far unique in the world of foundry software.
