Casting QC — Casting Foundry ERP

Run dimensional checks, defect analysis and rework tracking so only sound castings ship.

Catch defects, learn from them

Castings fail in many ways — dimensional, porosity, shrinkage, inclusions — and a foundry that only counts rejects never fixes the cause. QC has to inspect properly, classify defects, manage rework, and tie failures back to the heat and mould that produced them.

This module runs casting QC end to end: dimensional and visual inspection, defect classification and analysis, rejection and rework tracking, all traceable to heat, pattern and sand — so you both ship sound castings and cut the next batch’s defects.

It connects directly to the rest of your Casting Foundry ERP, and can be extended with AI or mobile apps for field teams.

What the module handles

Inspection, defects and rework in one place

📐
Dimensional inspection
Check castings against drawings and tolerances.
🔎
Defect classification
Classify porosity, shrinkage, inclusions and more.
📊
Defect analysis
Analyse defects by heat, pattern, mould and shift.
🔁
Rework management
Track fettling, rework and re-inspection.
🚫
Rejection tracking
Record rejections with reason and cost.
🔗
Traceability
Trace defects to heat, pattern and sand.
Our Process

How it works

From inspection to root-cause action.

✓

✓
3
Decide
Accept, rework or reject.
✓
4
Rework
Track fettling and re-inspection.
✓
5

What it changes for your business

🛡️
Only sound castings ship
Structured inspection and disposition keep defective parts in the yard.
📉
Falling rejection rates
Defect analysis by cause drives real reductions, not just counts.
🔗
Root cause, fast
Traceability to heat, pattern and sand pinpoints why parts failed.
💰
Lower rework cost
Rework tracking exposes and controls the true cost of defects.

Casting QC — frequently asked questions

Does it track defects and rejections?

Yes. Castings are inspected and dispositioned, and rejections are recorded with defect type, reason and cost, so quality performance is measured, not guessed.

Can it find the root cause of defects?

It can. Defects are analysed by heat, pattern, mould and shift and traced back to source, so recurring problems are fixed rather than repeatedly scrapped.

How is rework handled?

Rework such as fettling is tracked through to re-inspection, so reworked castings are controlled and the true cost of defects is visible.

Is inspection tied to production records?

Yes. QC results are traceable to the heat, pattern and sand that produced the casting, connecting quality directly to the process that caused it.
