Products · Foundry
Built for iron foundries. It reads the records you already keep, from heat logs and purchases to power bills and rejections, and gives you a cost card for every casting, a quote for every new part, and an alert wherever cost is leaking.
Most foundries know their price per kilo. Few know which castings make money and which lose it. The difference hides in the charge mix , the furnace meter and the rejections that come back weeks later . Foundry finds it, casting by casting.
Each casting carries its own bill of materials: sand and binder, cores, sleeves, filters and coatings, priced at what you paid over the period you choose.
Melting energy comes from the meter reading of each heat, never added up row by row, and is shared over the kilograms melted. Power bills are read straight from the PDF.
Scrap, pig iron, returns, ferro-alloys and inoculant are priced from what each heat actually took, at your weighted-average purchase price. Alloy freight lands where it belongs.
A casting scrapped at knockout costs less than one a customer sends back. Rejection is charged by stage, net of the metal you recover, and fixed costs are spread over the castings you actually made.
Every casting you make gets a card like this one, built from the heats it came from. Each layer traces back to the heats, bills and registers behind it.
Quotes
A part you haven't made yet is priced with the same rates as the castings you have. Once it is in production, its first cost card lines up against the quote, layer by layer.
Alerts
Eight checks run over any period you pick. Each finding is ranked Critical, Warning or Watch, and shows how far the number moved.
Ask
Type a question the way you'd ask your accountant, and get the answer from your own cost cards and registers, not from guesswork.
Three, all in SG 500/7. Rejection drove most of it: the bend ran at 9%, up from 4% the quarter before.
Twelve modules on one set of numbers. Every page works on a phone as well as at a desk.
No. It reads the exports and registers you keep today: the heat log, purchase register, rejection register, casting master and power bills. Nothing in your ERP changes.
Iron foundries pouring grey and ductile iron. It costs shell, green sand and no-bake moulding, with cores made in house or bought in.
A cost card costs castings you have made, from the heats they came from. A quote prices a part you haven't made yet, from its RFQ. Both use the same rates, so a quote can be checked against the real cost once the part is in production.
It tells you. A missing price, weight or meter reading stops the calculation with a message naming what is missing, and the integrity checks list records that are missing, malformed or entered late.
No. Costs come from a fixed, tested method you can trace line by line. AI is used where it helps: answering questions about your numbers in plain words.
Yes. Every page works on a phone as well as a desktop, so the shop floor and the owner see the same numbers.
Book a demo. We walk you through cost cards, quotes and alerts on sample data. If it fits, you share a year of exports, and we load and reconcile them with you before you rely on a single number.
