Enhance simulation, improve engineering, and optimize design with an additional 82+ products that’s already part of your offering. Discover third-party solutions from a single unified source that you know and trust through the Advanced Partner Alliance (APA).
APA solutions are delivered through the Altair Units licensing system, which allows customers to access multiple engineering tools using a shared pool of licenses. This lowers barriers to adoption and simplifies procurement for your customers.

Warum Every Casting Counts?

Good Guys' Index (GGI) calculates CO2 emissions from the full casting lifecycle—raw material to customer delivery. Users can simulate and compare casting designs, methoding, foundries, energy sources, and furnaces, while calculating associated costs, energy consumption, and CO2 emissions across scenarios.

Vorteile

  • Calculate CO2 Emissions: With great detail, users can calculate the CO2 emissions for any type of castings from cradle to gate.
  • Compare Different Conditions: Users can compare different foundries, different castings, or different countries to see how they will affect CO2 emissions.
  • Predefined Process Data: GGI comes with predefined process data that users can adapt for their specific casting conditions.

CO2 comparison of methoding designs

Challenge: A defect-prone Carbon Steel casting required 4 exothermic feeders — adding unwanted CO₂.
Solution: GGI modelled a redesigned casting method, eliminating the need for extra feeders.
Result: 0.54 kg CO₂ saved per casting — a 9% reduction.
