What We Do
Software Solutions
The engineers at EKK have developed EKKcapcast, a revolutionary and sophisticated program for simulating every aspect of the casting process and returning comprehensive and accurate results.
Consulting Services
The engineers at EKK have over 15 years of experience applying EKKcapcast metal casting simulation software to a wide variety of casting concerns.
Cutting Edge Software
Fast
Quick simulation turn around time provides more time for trying out engineering design changes.
Accurate
EKK's Finite Element Method (FEM) based software accurately models your entire casting process using minimal computational requirements.
Efficient
Complex multiple cavity models can be run on modest desktop computers running Linux or Microsoft Windows.
Processes
The engineers at EKK, Inc have years of experience working in the casting industry. Our expertise and familiarity with both casting itself and using the software guarantees the best results.
EKKcapcast is a powerful and flexible software, capable of simulating every casting process. Select a process from a sampling on the left for more information. Contact us if you don't see your process listed so we can give you more specific details.
High Pressure Die Casting
The entire casting process is simulated - everything from ladling to die spray. We can design complete runner systems, perform stress analyses on the mold and casting, or simply diagnose problematic flow patterns.
Low Pressure
EKKcapcast's two-phase flow solver is able to use pressure to dictate filling conditions in a variety of configurations making modeling LP, PCPC/ACPC, and VRC/PRC all possible. Real time effects of cooling line configurations can be observed.
SPM & Tilt
Semi-Permanent Mold castings are often quite large and complex making for very demanding simulation work. EKKcapcast is up to the challenge thanks to the advantages offered by our specially designed FEM mesh generator. With moving model capabilities, Tilt pour flow can be easily and accurately modeled.
Printed Sand &
Sand Casting
The solidification module was the first EKK Inc. developed over 25 years ago. Advances since have only led to reduced simulation time and improved accuracy. Real time effects of chills on solidification patterns can be observed.
Other Processes
EKKcapcast simulation software can be used for modeling other casting processes in addition to HPDC, LP, SPM, and Sand castings. Our mesh generator can be applied to any casting process.
Consulting Services
The engineers at EKK have over 15 years of experience applying EKKcapcast metal casting simulation software to a wide variety of casting concerns. The consulting side of the business is housed under the same roof as the software development side, so each team can work together to most efficiently solve your casting problems. This environment provides for collaboration that enables
HPDC gating design services provided by EKK Inc. will save your company time and money all while resulting in a better final casting. We will work closely with you to design a complete gating and overflow system for your casting. Our tried-and-true approach towards gating design overcomes the limitations of traditional gating design techniques to help you be as competitive as possible in today’s global market.
By taking advantage of the advanced casting simulation technologies present in EKKcapcast, the experienced engineers at EKK Inc. can help you develop and optimize your casting process. We take our time to communicate with you and fully understand your process and goals. No matter what you want accomplished, we can probably help you.
Improve Your Business
Reduce Costs
Improved yields as well as less physical mold alterations and tests results in decreased development time and part costs.
Spend Less Time
Decrease development lead times by quickly iterating your design in the virtual world. Find the best casting before you cut the mold.
Improve Yield
Optimal efficiency and design means better parts with less waste. No more over engineered gating and risers.
Know More
The amount of data collected using EKKcapcast means you'll know more about your casting process than you ever have before.
Find issues
You will be able to find casting problems and inefficiencies before you even cut the mold.
