What is Simcenter Inspire Cast?
Simcenter Inspire Cast is a powerful, user-friendly casting simulation software designed to streamline the entire casting process from design to production. Formerly known as Click2Cast, this solution allows designers, foundry engineers, and manufacturers to visualise and avoid common casting defects like air entrapment, shrinkage porosity, and cold shuts early in the design phase.
With an easy-to-follow five-step guided process, users can simulate a variety of casting methods, including gravity die, gravity sand, investment, high-pressure, low-pressure, and tilt pouring. Its intuitive user interface, automatic mesh generation, and simple geometry import process make Inspire Cast accessible to both beginners and advanced users alike.
Simcenter Inspire Cast enables faster decision-making, reduces prototyping costs, and ensures that cast components are manufactured right the first time. Its concurrent processing capabilities allow for faster analysis times, making it a valuable tool for accelerating production timelines and improving profitability.

Key features of Simcenter Inspire Cast
Simcenter Inspire Cast empowers users to create better casting designs while reducing waste, rework, and production costs. With a simple five-step workflow, users can simulate, analyse, and improve casting processes with ease. See how Simcenter Inspire Cast can transform your casting process.
Avoid Casting Defects
Prevent common casting defects such as air entrapment, shrinkage porosity, and cold shuts before they occur. Simcenter Inspire Cast features a mesh generator that simplifies the geometry import process, saving time and avoiding the headaches often associated with traditional CAD repair.
With real-time feedback on casting quality, users can address potential flaws at the earliest design stage, reducing downstream corrections and saving valuable time and resources.
Improve Your Casting Design Process
Enhance your entire casting process with Simcenter Inspire Cast five-step workflow. From geometry import to final analysis, the user-centric interface makes it simple for both novice and expert users to achieve optimal casting designs.
Take advantage of concurrent processing to significantly reduce simulation times, allowing multiple scenarios to be tested in minutes. The software is equipped with built-in templates for multiple casting methods, including gravity die, investment, tilt pouring, high-pressure, and low-pressure casting. This level of flexibility supports a wide range of industry needs.

Simcenter Inspire Cast is a manufacturing simulation software focused on analysing and validating metal casting processes. It helps engineers and designers simulate casting behaviour digitally to identify potential defects before production.
Simcenter Inspire Cast is used to simulate metal casting processes such as gravity casting and low-pressure casting. Engineers use it to evaluate how molten metal fills a mould, solidifies, and cools during the casting process.
Simcenter Inspire Cast helps identify common casting defects such as shrinkage porosity, air entrapment, cold shuts, and incomplete filling. This allows engineers to address issues early in the design or process planning stage.
Simcenter Inspire Cast supports manufacturability by allowing engineers to assess whether a part can be successfully cast before tooling is created. This helps reduce trial-and-error during production and supports better casting design decisions.
Simcenter Inspire Cast is commonly used by manufacturing engineers, foundry engineers, and product designers involved in metal casting processes. It is suited to teams responsible for validating cast part quality and process feasibility.
Simcenter Inspire Cast is designed to be used early in the design process. It allows engineers to evaluate casting feasibility and potential defects before finalising part geometry or investing in tooling.
Simcenter Inspire Cast is typically used during process planning and design validation stages. It helps teams assess casting performance before moving to physical trials or full-scale production.
Simcenter Inspire Cast helps reduce casting defects, supports better process understanding, and improves confidence in cast part quality. It enables digital validation of casting processes before manufacturing begins.
Simcenter Inspire Cast is part of the broader Altair Inspire platform and can be used alongside other Inspire tools to support design and manufacturing decision-making across the product lifecycle.
