At its core, Melt-iQ seamlessly connects technical and commercial data, creating a solid foundation for informed decision-making directly in the melting shop – whether the goal is to cut costs, optimize materials, or reduce CO₂ emissions.
What Melt-iQ offers to foundries:
-
Cost-optimized charge calculation based on target analyses, melting losses, and alloy specifications
-
Comprehensive documentation and traceability of all materials, analyses, and charge protocols
-
Simulation tools for evaluating alternative materials or pricing scenarios using "What-if" functionality
-
Integration of technical and commercial data to align production, procurement, and quality management
-
In development: advanced CO₂ calculation and optimization features for data-based sustainability decisions
A key milestone in our development was the early testing phase at Klaus Kuhn Edelstahlgießerei GmbH – one of Europe’s most established stainless steel foundries. As one of the first companies to trial the new CO₂-related features of Melt-iQ in real production settings, they are providing valuable practical feedback.
“For us, Melt-iQ is more than a standard tool – it’s a true process instrument. We particularly value the close cooperation on the CO₂ functionality. Our specific requirements flow directly into development – and that makes all the difference,” says the Head of Materials Management at Klaus Kuhn Edelstahlgießerei GmbH.
This partnership demonstrates that digital innovation and industrial experience are not opposites – they complement one another. Foundries looking to improve transparency, resource efficiency, and sustainability will find in Melt-iQ a proven, flexible, and future-ready solution.
Whether working with iron, steel, non-ferrous metals, or in recycling – the challenges are similar, and Melt-iQ continues to evolve in step with them.
