Digismart (Sandman Lite)

SANDMAN^® DigiSMART efficiently captures, co-relates, validates and integrates a Foundry's sand data - regardless of volume and source into a structured repository.

Standardised, comprehensive and easy-to-use forms for data entry based on globally accepted nomenclature and foundry lexicon; thus, ensuring that data e ntered is correct every time!

Data can be entered directly through spread sheets (excel) or directly on the software and/or also through WiFi enabled Tablets and Mobile phones.

It also has IIoT sensors and SCADA handshake capabilities for on-line data capturing (optional feature).

Historically, foundrymen have relied on the 'art' of experience and instinct based decision - making. However, there is a decreasing availability of domain-experienced personnel and skilled manpower. The new age sand systems which churn out huge volumes of sand, molds and cores and handle multi patterns with varying Sand:Metal ratios & rarely allow visual or 'feel' capabilities of the system sand.

SANDMAN^® DigiSMART is designed especially for foundry green sand systems e nabling the Foundry to capture historical data bases as well as current data as-it-happens. It also has the unique feature of Annotation of daily and past experiences to build a knowledge base that accumulates and institutionalizes a foundry's experiential insights. This means that valuable knowledge doesn't get lost with the movement of personnel and is available to all succeeding process owners, without limitation.

This Cloud-based software makes it easy to access data anytime, anywhere, without geographic or physical limitations.

There is no need for on-site installation and the state of your sand system can always be available w ith a few clicks.

This software mandates NO change in Man, Material and Machine .

SANDMAN^® DigiSMART: Allows for visualisation and correlation of multi-variate sand properties against casting defects over various time ranges, which can also be granular to individual components or casting groups, enabling useful actionalable insights to possible causalities of rejections.

Enables quick and insightful correlations between sand properties, additives, and rejections. The line charts can be easily customised across variable date and time series, multiple properties, rejection types etc., with directional support to understand causes of casting defects during the set period/s which can be chosen according to wish.
