Fig. 2. Flowchart of a design process, in which 3D CAD and simulation are used by the foundry. In Finland this is the most typical situation today. In this procedure simulation results are used, when foundry and the machine shop engineers negotiate about construction and other design changes including the expenses of different design options. Large box represent a foundry. Heavy lines indicate expensive operations.
