Plan the charge before melting
ProdCalc supports automatic optimization and manual adjustment, including returns and other recycled materials. The calculation uses the chemistry, limits, prices and yield factors configured for the application.
ProdCalc
Initial charge calculation for your foundry
Plan the furnace charge using product chemistry limits, source-material data and a target charge mass. Follow the melt through charging, analysis, correction and production records.
ProdCalc
- Materials
- Alloy targets
- Charge plan
Connect the plan to production
Record the amounts actually charged, transfer the spectrometer result to AdjCalc and retain the melt status and production history.
Included workflow modules
- Schedule: Charge scheduling.
- ProdCalc: Initial charge calculation.
- Action: Melt actions log.
- Charging: Charged amounts and inventory tracking.
- AdjCalc: Melt correction, with its dependent modules included in the ProdCalc package.
Evaluate with your own workflow
Begin with a representative product specification, source-material chemistry and costs, and the normal charge mass. Alutron reviews the inputs and installation before confirming the workflow.
Initial charge calculation does not replace analysis of the actual melt. AdjCalc uses that analysis to calculate correction additions when required.
