In order to scale back the process development time and maintain profit alongside increasing consistency of the system, it's become obligatory for foundry engineers to optimize gating system and so forestall defects before the production of casting starts. Investment casting method is producing method to form advanced geometrical components of metal materials in mass production. However again and again completely different defects arise like shrinkage, porosity, cracks etc. These defects are decreased by acceptable changes in gating parameters, like location, form and size. Improving the investment casting gating system supported style of gating system and simulation with the aim of rising casting quality. The simulation techniques are used to reduce shop floor time. Design of gating system is very important in any molding or casting process, in order to get defect free components. In this paper, task is accomplished through SoftCast software, which is entirely used for casting process.
