This study shows the utility of the CastView approach to improve casting design efficiency. Our research aims to automate core determination, identify parting surfaces, and design efficient gating systems using geometric methods. We propose a comprehensive framework that integrates techniques such as voxelization, distance fields, watershed algorithms to identify optimal cores and parting lines. Additionally, our approach considers factors like projected area, flatness, draw, draft angles, undercuts, and dimensional stability to ensure accurate and manufacturable design outcomes. Furthermore, we investigate the use of ubiquitous 3D graphics tools for interactive visualization and estimation of finishing processes and costs. By combining these advancements, a tooling engineer can achieve higher levels of automation, optimization, and cost-effectiveness in casting design.
