To squeeze the last bit of profit from every casting, make sure each is produced with the highest possible yield.
Key Points Don't sacrifice yield and profit to make consistently sound castings. Don’t process metal you don’t have to. Don’t buy capacity you don’t have to. Optimize the big runners first, that’s where the money is. Energy, cash, and time are wasted when your yield is low. Every casting should have its feeding system optimized. Every gating system should be evaluated to see whether filtration or direct pouring can provide a yield improvement benefit and greater profit. Problem jobs, assuming all the other high value work is done, should be optimized in order of profit opportunity.
