In this episode of Foundry Talk, hosts Nate McClain and Perry Merritt chat with Dave Schmidt, VP of Finite Solutions Incorporated, about metal casting simulation software. Dave shares the company's history since 1985, debunking misconceptions (yes, it works!), and demos flow/solidification analysis to predict defects, optimize rigging, and improve yields.

They explore real-world examples like turbulent fills, bottom gating issues, and how simulation aids robust processes—essential for modern foundries. Tips on using tools like SOLIDCast, plus contract services for those without in-house expertise.
