Foundries

From pattern to casting, every order in view

For foundries that cast to customer order in aluminum, iron, bronze or steel. Industric connects the pattern, the mold, the pour, the finishing and the quality of every order.

01What happens in a job foundry

Many customers, one furnace and patterns everywhere

  1. Where is this customer’s pattern?

    Finding the pattern, its version and its core box before molding takes time and phone calls.

  2. The pour is not linked to the order

    Knowing which heat each part came from depends on a spreadsheet nobody updates.

  3. Batch quality stays on paper

    When the customer complains, rebuilding the inspection of that batch takes days.

02Industry workflow

03How a foundry uses it

The modules that matter most in a foundry

  • Shop floor

    Molding, pouring and finishing as tasks with an owner, actual time and progress per order.

  • Quality

    Batch inspection, nonconformances tied to the order and release before shipping.

  • BoM and engineering

    Pattern, core box and mold as project parts, with their revisions.

  • Purchasing and inventory

    Alloy, sand and consumables reserved per order and requisitions for what is missing.

  • Planning

    Molding and pouring schedule with committed dates in view.

  • Customer portal

    Your customer follows the progress of their order and approves deliverables without asking for reports.

04FAQ

About Industric for foundries

Does it work if we also make the patterns?

Yes. The pattern and the core box are handled as project parts, with their bill of materials and revisions.

Can I tell which heat a part came from?

Yes, if the heat is noted on the pouring task: it stays in the order history together with the inspections.

Does it work for continuous high-volume production?

Industric is built for job foundries and short or medium runs, where each order has its own pattern and dates.

Is a foundry using Industric?

Yes. Fundimoldes, which builds molds and casts aluminum in Bogotá, Colombia, runs its operation on Industric.
