Prototypes & Small Batch Production
Ascent is well-known for its competence in developing most challenging prototypes for various industries. Our prototyping capability is attributed to our experience in the field as well as the advanced in-house facilities.
Design Capabilities
We use industry-leading modelling softwares for tooling and casting design
- Pro/E
- Delcam
- Design Interface format - IGES and STEP
Casting Simulation Capabilities for Casting Methoding
Simulation is a key to the quality of casting development. AutoCAST is used for the simulation of mould filling and the solidification simulation required for casting process. This helps in guiding improved casting quality as well as predicting the casting defects mapping of the production process.
