ACE-MINI · ARTIFICIAL CASTING ENGINEER

Casting intelligence.
In seconds.

See metal fill, cooling fronts move, and a casting deform. Ace-Mini predicts casting fields from part geometry, gate placement and gravity—so you can explore a setup before committing to a full solver run.

01 / More ideas. Less waiting.

Compare the average time to generate casting fields with the recorded runtime of a leading industry casting solver, across the complete comparison set.

02 / See the physics, side by side

Pick a part and press Play. The leading industry casting solver appears on the left; Ace-Mini appears on the right. Every physics view shares the same geometry, with linked cameras and matching color scales.

Playback progress
Continuous playback; each dynamic view shows its own physical time. Solid fraction: 0 = liquid, 1 = solid. The outline remains as a CAD reference.Loading comparison…
One best-matching filling example is displayed per part. All comparisons contribute to the aggregate figures below.

03 / Agreement you can measure

Average model-to-solver agreement across the complete comparison set. Region agreement measures liquid/air or solid/liquid classification; overlap measures how closely the predicted regions occupy the same space.

Relative error = total absolute deviation ÷ total solver reference magnitude × 100, averaged across comparisons. Displacement uses vector magnitudes; temperature uses Kelvin. Zero-reference cases are N/A. Errors can exceed 100%.

04 / Small model. Spatial predictions.

A geometry encoder describes the part. A spatial field network combines that representation with gates, gravity and time to predict filling, temperature, solidification and defect indicators. A second network predicts deformation through cooling and demolding.
