At ESI, we understand the constant pressure foundries and suppliers face to reduce development cost while maintaining a very high level of product quality.  In this competitive environment, manufacturers have to consistently deliver high precision components with minimal defects, higher feature integration, and maximum yield.


ESI Group is the world’s leading provider of digital simulation software for testing, validating and improving product performance and manufacturing processes. By significantly reducing costs and development lead times, our solutions enable a continuous collaborative improvement of your product and process.

ProCAST and QuikCAST provide a complete software solution allowing for predictive evaluations of the entire casting process including:
     •Cavity filling to view filling pattern, trapped air and cold spots,
     •Solidification with shrink porosity prediction,
     •Stress calculations for distortion, hot tearing and cracking,
     •Microstructure predictions to determine mechanical properties,
     •Automated material property calculations based on alloy composition.

ESI tools cover a wide range of casting processes and alloy systems including these capabilities:
     •Sand casting, permanent mold and tilt pour casting,
     •High and low pressure die casting,
     •Investment casting, including roll over,
     •Lost foam and centrifugal casting,
     •Ingot and continuous casting,
     •Core blowing and heat treatment.

Please be sure to register for one of these seminars now!

What foundries are saying about casting simulation


“This problem would have taken about 12 weeks and $6,000 in pattern changes plus countless hours of machine time to solve using conventional trial and error methods. With QuikCAST, we can easily solve similar problems in 2 weeks and produce a good pattern the first time. We have used simulation on about 20 parts to date and the simulation results are similar to what we see in the shop."
Dan Rudolph Quality Engineer J. Walter Miller Company

“By helping us optimize the design before we even begin making the mold, QuikCAST has much more than paid for itself.”
Mike Maratta, Program & Engineering Manager, EPCOR Foundries
