STRATEGIC INDUSTRY SOLUTIONS BY DOMAIN EXPERTS & THOUGHT LEADERS
Metal Castings is one of Mankind's first innovation in graduating from tools made of bone, wood and stone, to cutting, mining tools and hunting tools and weapons made from metal.
Over the Eons, metal casting industry has developed into a very precise science and pervades almost every aspect of Mankind's industrial endeavour whether in the realm of motion, automation, space or just everyday life.
Foundries are the producers of castings. One segment of metal castings in foundries is Iron cast in green sand moulds.
Relying on sand, water, natural clay (bentonite) and carbonaceous additives; to make moulding sand and converting this mix into a ‘mould’, foundries process ferrous scrap, pig iron, ferro alloys into a Cast shape of Iron.
Along the way, The casting process also generates "casting rejections". Casting rejections are those components which have defects like blowholes, sand fusion, scabs, etc. While the component itself can be recycled by recharging into the furnace for remelting, its rejuvenation into a new component requires the following:
- Additional electrical energy (0.700 MW) per ton of scrap.
- Fresh additions of inoculants and alloys.
- Fresh requirements of new sand, clay and additives
- Additional labor, electricity, productive capacity
The real impact of casting rejection is however the following:
- Generation of toxic waste along with disposal of 'used' sand
- Generation of CO2 emissions due to use of electrical energy to not only re-melt the scrapped casting, but also associated with the re-process.
- Carbon footprints.
- Waste of natural resources like sand, water, clay and carbonaceous additives.
MPM Infosoft is a pioneer in the design and development of cutting edge data analytics software, analytical tools and services for reducing wastage thereby improving productivity and improvingenvironmental performance in the field of castings related to moulding sand practice.
SANDMAN conceived and invented by Mr. Deepak Chowdhary, a domain expert in this field; and developed and marketed by MPM INFOSOFT is the direct result of this endeavour.
