Casting Rejection 101

Photograph the defect. Tap what it is.

Gloves on, at the bench, with no signal. Your team photographs the casting, marks the defect with a box, and taps its name. No typing. Every photo and every correction trains a model that will one day name the defect for you.

Draw a box around the defect
The whole job

Set up once. Then three screens, on a loop.

An inspector signs in and picks the area once for the batch. After that, every casting is the same three screens: photograph, mark, tap. Under ten seconds each.

The casting's own stamp is the record - no numbers to type, and ready to be read automatically later.

Photograph the defect, mark it

Snap the defect and draw a box around it. That mark is exactly what a future model learns to spot.

Tap what it is

Pick the defect. It saves and jumps straight back to screen 1 for the next casting. Not sure? Tap Unknown and it goes up the line.

Photograph, mark, tap - then straight back to the start. That loop is all your inspectors do.
Don't guess

If you don't know, escalate.

A wrong label is worse than no label. When an inspector cannot name a defect, one tap on Unknown sends it up the line until someone settles it. No opinion is thrown away.

Because nothing is overwritten, disagreements become your best training material - for your people today, and for the model tomorrow.

The reason to start now

Every photo makes it smarter.

Today your team names the defect.
Tomorrow, the casting names itself.

Your modeltrained on your castings
Blowholesuggested, you confirm

Every photo, every location and every expert's final word becomes training data that belongs to your foundry. Give it enough, and CaRe 101 proposes the defect the instant the picture is taken. The inspector just taps to agree, and a paper register quietly turns into a model no competitor can copy.

Building now - and every defect you log today gets you there faster.
Why foundries use it

A rejection register that thinks.

Paper registers just record what went wrong. CaRe 101 captures the evidence and turns it into decisions - and into a model.

📷

No typing at the bench

The heat code and pattern number are photographed, not keyed. A dusty-gloved operator only points, shoots and taps.

📍

The defect, marked

The operator draws a box around the defect on the photo. Supervisors see exactly what was flagged, and the model learns where to look.

🔎

Don't lose a hard call

Not sure? Tap Unknown and it goes up the line - supervisor, plant expert, or Versatile. Every opinion is kept.

🔄

Anyone above can reclassify

A supervisor or expert can correct any defect. The full history is shown, and stats reveal who needs training and which defects get confused.

📶

Works with no signal

The fettling bench is often a dead zone. Logging keeps going, and photos upload themselves through our server when the network returns.

🌐

Speaks the floor's language

Tiles are pictures first. Defect names show in Hindi, Marathi, Tamil, Gujarati, Bengali, Telugu and more.

What it costs

Free for every foundry.

Unlimited users, the whole floor-to-console workflow, offline, at no cost. You only pay as defect-photo volume grows or you switch on the automation. Not per seat.

Rs 0 to run it

One Admin, Expert, Supervisor and Inspector active at a time, unlimited people behind them. Logging, marking, escalation and reports, all included.

📈

Pay only as you grow

More defect-photo volume, or the OCR, model-training and AI-assist switches. Priced on usage, with no per-user charge.

🔒

Your data stays yours

Isolated to your foundry, not shared or sold. Models train only on your data, and captured work syncs when a connection returns.
