The world’s first Data Analytics software for Foundries

SANDMAN ™ is a cloud-based Predictive and Prescriptive Data Analytics driven decision support system that employs powerful mathematical modelling and algorithms for optimisation of a foundry’s green sand system. Sandman’s powerful data correlation capabilities and unique SANDMIX algorithm helps foundries achieve a dose-by-need additive prediction based on its consumption, sand properties and casting data over a long period of time and continuous data sets thereby optimizing additive consumption reducing rejections and associated costs. This SaaS-delivered software is backed by a team of experienced foundry experts, data scientists, and developers.

The genesis of Sandman lay in the providing of Value-added solutions for Green Sand Moulding Foundries, which Mr. Deepak Chowdhary introduced in the early 1990s. Inviting laboratory samples of green sand and additives, he was able to predict the possible casting defects, causes, and their possible solutions based on some fundamental parameters of the sand sample. The predictions, based on his growing experience with several hundred foundries that his company supplied additives to, proved to be quite accurate and thus commanded consistent interest and demand from customers and became a significant value proposition. To make this expertise in predicting sand related casting defects led to the conceptualisation of Sandman.
