VulcaRAMix
All featuresFeature overview

Physics engine with two solve paths

At the heart of VulcaRAMix is a calculation engine that traces a product's actual path through the entire line – module by module, with every interaction that occurs in reality too. The specific calculation methods are a trade secret; what is transparent and traceable is what the engine takes into account on every run:

The actual product geometry

Cross-section shape, wall thickness or solid-material characteristics, and material distribution.

The real material properties

Of every compound used, including its cure behavior.

The complete module chain

Of the chosen machine or line – every module with its own technology, length, and setting.

Line speed

And the resulting residence time in every individual module.

Several simultaneously active heating and cooling mechanisms

From classic convection and radiation through to dielectric (microwave) heating.

The time course of cure

Across the entire run, not just a single end value.

Maturity: VulcaRAMix is in productive use and is continuously extended with new technologies and profile types. Calculations run on either a simplified (1D) or a full two-dimensional (2D) grid, depending on how complex the chosen product is. Every simulation run is versioned, so different parameter sets can always be compared directly.
