We have been successfully using CAE for about 25 years to give our customers technical advantages in the implementation of their projects. Mathematical simulations make a key contribution towards saving time and costs by answering questions that could otherwise only be resolved by the construction of elaborate prototypes or the performing of tests. Alongside high-performance hardware and software, this also requires highly-qualified and experienced experts who are in a position to create meaningful links between theory and practice.

Preparation of computation models
Filling analysis
- Determination of gate position and shape
- Design of the runner
- Establishment of weld lines and air inclusions
- Establishment of material stressing during the filling phase
- Establishment of the filling pressure requirement and the clamping forces
