There is little question that we live in a digital world. The question becomes how can we put the information to work. This paper serves to answer that question specifically as digital data exists in the wax room of an investment casting foundry. Meeting customer expectations has been a driving force for decades and many different quality management systems have evolved to achieve this requirement. Business management dictates that any successful program provides a sound ROI. A common theme with these programs is data collection and analysis. Our digital world makes both the collection of key metrics and the analysis of those metrics much more economical. All this effort has lead toward more robust process control. The core of this paper deals with how to collect appropriate data and analyze that data for the highest levels of process control in the wax room. Using the latest model wax injection and assembly equipment allows this level of process control and data collecton for both qualitative and quantitative analysis. In turn, this leads to sound operational decision netting the most efficient production of both wax patterns and assemblies.
