X1Recall: Self-learning Process Optimisation

Scottish Branch Technical meeting, January 2007.
X1Recall is the world’s first self-learning, web-based software designed for process optimisation that uses evidence-based approach by discovering diagnostic knowledge from historical data.

Dr Rajesh Ransing of Swansea University gave a presentation of X1Recall to ICME Scottish regional members on 17th January 2007.

X1Recall takes process data and analyses the correlation between process factors and responses. Its unique analysis engine discovers new routes to process optimisation and provides a better understanding of your process.

Development of this unique technique for defect recognition, and continuing process optimisation from the input of process data, has taken place over the last two years and is now available to the casting industry. X1 Recall has been developed in conjunction with investment, sand, die casters and suppliers.

The research was funded by Research Councils and Knowledge Exploitation Fund of the Welsh Assembly and was actively supported by a consortium of foundries and the Cast Metals Federation. There is a unique opportunity for British Foundries and Cast Metal Federation members to use a technique, which has taken over £800,000 and 10 person years to develop at a substantially reduced discounted fee.

X1Recall is an award-winning product that has won the recent regional Technium Challenge competition. This software and its proper application will give significant benefits in reducing scrap, optimizing your process and increasing your bottom line.
