FOUNDRY PRODUCTION

model can occur with a reduction in the overall
technological cycle as a result of the use of additional
accessories. This approach reduces the range of raw
materials, materials and components required
for production. However, products are often
designed only with marketing in mind. In most
cases, this leads to product modification at the
technological stage of engineering, without
taking into account the effect of the influence
of this event on the cost of physical distribution.
The management of the production process of
the foundry complex is primarily aimed
at reducing production costs and, as a rule, is focused on the rhythmic work of the
production cycle, the lead-time with high quality castings. These processes are in a
certain way correlated with material support, the task of which is to fully meet the
needs of the foundry. The relationship between these two processes becomes acute when it is
necessary to fulfill an urgent order or a new type of product. In this case, mobility, flexibility of
the system for ensuring the process of competitive production determine business success. In
addition, in modern conditions, engineering logistics is the main factor in the competitiveness of
the foundry, taking into account the state of the production infrastructure of the entire enterprise.
The most promising way to improve the quality of cast parts on the basis of improving the
technological processes of their manufacture, structure and foundry management systems is
the development of a simulation model of the foundry complex and dialogue expert assessments
based on it. This will make it possible to determine the optimal parameters for achieving high
efficiency in the operation of foundries or in the development and implementation of a new
technology. The presence of a fairly good imitation model of the foundry complex and modern
technology makes it possible to conduct their dialogue expert assessments by introducing certain
controversial provisions that allow one to see the inevitable consequences to which it will lead.
Using the simulation model, one should calculate the probabilistic and improbable causes and
the possibility of defects in castings, ranging from the quality of the charge to the state and
influence of the environment and the economic efficiency of production.
