Job Responsibilities Develop and execute casting simulations using

MAGMASOFT

to evaluate mold filling, molten metal flow, and solidification behavior. Design and optimize gating and risering systems using CAD software. Analyze simulation results to identify potential casting defects, including porosity, shrinkage, misruns, and incomplete mold filling. Recommend modifications to casting designs, gating layouts, riser configurations, and manufacturing parameters to improve casting quality. Create and modify 3D CAD models of castings, molds, and gating systems. Evaluate casting solidification patterns and material flow characteristics to improve manufacturing consistency. Compare actual casting defects with simulation predictions to validate models and identify process improvement opportunities. Investigate casting quality issues and perform root cause analysis to determine corrective actions. Support the development of new aluminum castings from initial design through production implementation. Coordinate casting tooling and pattern development with internal engineering teams and external pattern shops. Review engineering drawings, GD&T requirements, and technical specifications to ensure casting designs meet dimensional requirements. Develop casting process parameters, manufacturing procedures, and process control recommendations. Analyze casting inspection results, including applicable X-ray and nondestructive testing data, to evaluate product quality. Prepare technical reports documenting simulation results, defect predictions, design recommendations, and process improvements. Support production trials and evaluate casting performance against simulation results. Implement improvements to reduce casting scrap, improve yield, and increase manufacturing process reliability. Maintain casting simulation models, CAD files, engineering documentation, and process development records.
