This enables you to control the feeding behavior individually. This function is available for both batch production and single casting with sand molds. To use Active Feeding, you have to: • • 1.2 define control points of the type 'ACTIVE FEEDING' in the feeder geometry(-ies) in the pre- processor. activate the button 'active feeding' when defining the parameters for solidification simulation and then define the pressure for each control point. Defining Control Points in the Preprocessor Proceed as follows to define an 'ACTIVE FEEDING' control point: Click on the 'Ctrl Point' button in the menu field in the right part of the screen. The corresponding menu appears in the lower part of the menu field. Select the 'ACTIVE FEEDING' entry. Choose the function 'SET' with the left mouse button. Move the mouse cursor into any of the two dimensional views and click with the left mouse button at the required location for the control point. The control point is now established in two dimensions. To set the coordinate in the 3rd dimension, move the cursor into a different two di- mensional view and enter the third coordinate of this point with the left mouse but- ton. The control point is now set and appears as a cross in all views. Repeat the previous two steps for all control points you wish to define. Choose 'SAVE' at the bottom of the menu field. The defined control points are stored. 6 MAGMASOFT® 4.4 ACTIVE FEEDING MANUAL Control points may also be constructed via the keyboard. You always start and finish control point definition using the commands 'BEGIN CC' and 'END CC'. SET CTRL AP BEGIN CC SET POINT ... SET POINT ... SET POINT ... END CC Define the 'ACTIVE FEEDING' control point type Start of control point definition. Each 'SET POINT' def- inition that follows this statement is interpreted as being allocated to control points until the function 'END CC' is entered. Define the coordinates of the control point(s) End of control point definition. You can define as many control points within your feeder geometries as you like using this proce- dure. To each control point the 'AP' label is assigned, and a number is automatically assigned to it (in numerical order). Please refer also to Ch. 3.10, page 3-98 of the MAGMASOFT® 4.4 Manual, where the definition of control points is explained in detail. 1.3 Defining Pressure Now you have to define the pressure at the control points in the feeder(s) that you have defined in the preprocessor. This is done during the solidification simulation setup. Proceed as follows: In the window 'solidification definitions' ( Ch. 5.2.7, page 5-49 of the MAGMASOFT® 4.4 Manual), there is an 'active feeding' entry. Activate it by pressing the left mouse button. Two small buttons, 'yes' and 'no', appear. Choose 'yes' to activate the function and to get to the window 'active feeding definitions' (Fig. 1-1). If 'yes' has already been activated, you have to press the button again to start 'active feeding definitions'.

    In Serienguverfahren knnen Sie die Formoberflche durch den Auftrag eines Trennmittels fr
    den nchsten Giezyklus vorbereiten. Eine solche Behandlung fhrt zu einer besseren Oberfl-
    che der zu produzierenden Guteile. Der Trennmittelauftrag erfolgt am Ende eines Produktions-
    zyklus, wenn das Guteil aus der Form entnommen ist und die Form geffnet ist (Bild 1-1).
    Bild 1-1: Auftragen eines Trennmittels auf die Form
    Der Auftrag eines Trennmittels auf die Formoberflchen wirkt khlend und beeinflut so das ther-
    mische Verhalten des Giesystems. Diesen Effekt knnen Sie mit der Option MAGMAcoat simu-
    lieren. Der Khleffekt wird fr alle Flchen der Form bercksichtigt, die whrend der Erstarrung
    Kontakt haben mit den Materialgruppen 'Cast Alloy', 'Feeder', 'Feederneck', 'Gating', 'Filter' und
    'Ingate'. Fr die Kontaktflchen zwischen der Form und den Materialgruppen 'Inlet', 'Stalk' sowie

    'Biscuit' nimmt das Programm keinen Khleffekt an. Tab. 1-1 zeigt die fr MAGMAhpdc, MAG-
    MAlpdc und MAGMAwheel verfgbaren Materialgruppen der Form.

    Gehen Sie wie folgt vor, um die Abkhlungseffekte, verursacht durch den Auftrag eines Trennmit-
    tels, in der Simulation zu berechnen:
    Geben Sie die Simulationsparameter in gleicher Weise ein wie bei MAGMASOFT

    Standard.
    Bevor Sie die Parameter fr die Formfllung und die Erstarrung festlegen, erscheint das Fen-
    ster 'options' (Bild 1-2). (Wenn mehr als eine Option installiert ist, erscheinen weitere Optio-
    nen in diesem Fenster.) Whlen Sie fr 'Die Coating' die Einstellung 'yes'.
