Custom ERP for Casting Industry: Heat Management, Dispatch & Costing
Casting operations run on details that most off-the-shelf ERP systems were never designed to track: heat numbers, mould cycles, metal yield, and costing that changes with every batch depending on scrap rates and furnace efficiency. A custom ERP for casting industry operations is built around these realities instead of forcing a foundry to adapt its processes to fit generic manufacturing software. If you've tried running a casting unit on standard ERP modules meant for discrete manufacturing, you've probably hit the same wall most foundries do: the software tracks finished goods well enough, but it has no real concept of heat batches, mould-level traceability, or the kind of variable costing that casting actually requires.
