Fondrémy Optimizes Core Production with Arena-flow Simulation
Fondrémy Inc., in collaboration with LAEMPE REICH, used Arena-flow to improve casting quality and reduce tooling costs for a complex water pump housing.
Three Foundry Case Studies on Simulation Software
Fondrémy Inc., in collaboration with LAEMPE REICH, used Arena-flow to improve casting quality and reduce tooling costs for a complex water pump housing. By simulating sand core shooting and gassing, the team minimized prototyping, accelerated production, and transitioned to a high-yield, vertically poured molding process.
LampeReich Selects Arena-flow
CPFD Software is proud to announce that it has entered into a software licensing agreement with LaempeReich for CPFD’s Arena-flow simulation software.
Arena-flow Inorganic Curing Demonstration
This video demonstrates Arena-flow’s inorganic curing capabilities for dehydrative systems.
Vertical Blowing of a Greensand Mold
This video demonstrates the blowing of a green sand mold half on a vertical molding line. The sand initially enters at a higher velocity before slowing down as the mold fills.
Shell Sand, Thin-Walled Jacket Core
This video shows the cope and drag views of a thin-walled jacket core made using the shell sand / warm box module of Arena-flow.
Uphill Sand Flow
Arena-flow, by CPFD, models the air-driven sand flow critical to the creation of consistent, high-quality sand cores and molds for many processes including cold-box, shell, inorganics, greensand, hot-box, and warm-box. This video illustrates how air flow drags sand into the cavity.

Cold Box Core Blowing, Cylinder Head Water Jacket
Arena-flow by CPFD Software simulates the blowing of industrial sand cores, and this video highlights a cold box core scenario of a cylinder head water jacket.
Cold Box Curing, Gas and Air Progress Inside Tool
This video shows how a mixture of gas and air progresses inside a core box, as the sand has contact with gas, air, cured sand, in this instance cured sand is shown as transparent dark grey.
