Digitally transforming casting quality doesn’t have to be complicated or slow. You can start small by applying Industry 4.0 tools to centralize all your foundry data, and then accelerate your digital journey with artificial intelligence (AI) to consistently cut scrap. Proven applications at various foundries show at least a 40% scrap reduction (and in some cases even a complete elimination of scrap), as AI-driven recommendations identify process optimization across the entire casting process.
With a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering from the Technical University of Munich, Dr. Dennis Janitza has been looking after all things digital at Norican Group since 2017. He heads up the Norican Digital Lab to develop and deliver meaningful digital solutions and help foundries accelerate their digital journeys, all in close partnership with experts from the four Norican brands: DISA, Italpresse Gauss, StrikoWestofen and Wheelabrator. He previously was CEO of StrikoWestofen America.
