TundRA
How it fits together

Your own sealed TundRA site.

Every customer gets a separate copy of TundRA at its own web address. Nothing is shared with any other site.

One record, from every side. The bay tablets, your desktop and your suppliers all work on the same site record.

The bay tablet

Made for gloves, dust and a dropped signal.

The TundRA tablet takes the bay team through one tundish, one task, one screen at a time, on a rugged tablet fixed in the bay.

Sign in
Tap your name, or hold your ID card to the back of the tablet.
PIN keypad
A six-digit PIN on a keypad sized for gloved hands.

Big targets.

64 dp minimum tap targets and 80 dp primary actions, for gloved hands. Tap only: no swiping or dragging.

Sign in as yourself.

Tap your name and enter a six-digit PIN, or hold your ID card to the back of the tablet. Every record carries the person and the tablet.

Readable in the bay.

A light, high-contrast screen. Results always carry a colour, a word and a shape, never colour alone.

4G/5G, no Wi-Fi.

The tablets run on the mobile network. If the signal drops, records queue on the tablet and send when it is back.

Quality at every stage

The bay knows what to prepare next.

Planning the bay.

The site manager sets the work plan: which tundish to prepare, for which caster, and by when. A job past its ready-by time shows LATE in red on the tablet and the desktop.

Reject by the bag. Quarantine the batch.

A fault can be raised at goods receipt, in bay stock or while fitting. It is recorded with a reason, and it comes straight out of usable stock.

Every tundish knows its lining.

Tap any tundish to see where it is, how its permanent lining stands against the repair trigger, and the one thing to do next.

DV formers, inspected and traced.

TundRA keeps every former's condition and use on record, so only a sound former is ever picked. A failed former cannot be picked.

Condition flags, relines and campaigns.

Anything found on a tundish is flagged on the spot, and every reline starts a new campaign on its record.

Reporting

Reports that build themselves.

EVERY SHIFT
The shift in five figures.
Installs against plan, average cycle time, average dosed mass, first-time pass and equipment availability.
EVERY WEEK
Stock and days of cover.
Worked out from the recent rate of use, so you see which product runs out first.
EVERY MONTH
A Balanced Scorecard.
Six categories, two measures each, from the same records as everything else.
CAMPAIGN
Lining life across the whole fleet.
Permanent lining lives to date, by tundish, against the lives target in your contract.

Usage sign-off

Confirm what was used. Then it is invoiced.

At the end of each period, each caster manager sees exactly which tundishes were used on their caster, and confirms them on their TundRA site.

Monday 07:00

Last week is raised for every caster, nil weeks included, and each caster manager is emailed.

Day 3

A reminder if the period is still waiting.

Day 7

A second reminder.

Then

Escalated to the contract owner.

What counts · billing that matches your contract

Per finished tundish.

A completed build counts when the tundish is released.

Per item used.

Each item or the dosed mass of material taken out of site stock.

Per tonne cast.

Tonnes recorded when a tundish comes back from the caster.

The supplier portal

Every supplier, on the same record.

Refractories, nozzles, stoppers and every other item are traced the same way, whoever supplies them. Each supplier keeps their own data up to date in the supplier portal.

Their own area on your site. Each supplier sees only their own products, orders and deliveries.

Data sheets first. PDS and SDS required for every product; without both it cannot be used on a build.

One label per line, booked in on site. An A4 label with a QR code for product, batch and delivery note.

Supplier delivery

Yours and sealed

Your own copy. Your data. Nothing shared.

Data security

Your data, secured and held where you need it.

Each TundRA site is a sealed installation of its own, encrypted end to end, with access controlled person by person and tablet by tablet.

Deployed to the region that suits you.

Sites run today on Fasthosts virtual private servers in the UK. A site can be deployed to any geographical region, so your data stays within the jurisdiction your business requires.

Sealed per site.

Your own service, database, files and certificate. No other customer's data is ever on your site.

Encrypted in transit.

Every connection from the tablets, the desktop and the supplier portal runs over TLS, under your site's own certificate.

Encrypted at rest.

The database, uploaded documents and backups are encrypted on disk.

Multi-factor sign-in.

Email and password plus an authenticator app. Your admin can make the second factor compulsory for every account.

Controlled tablets.

Each tablet is enrolled to your site by QR code and can be withdrawn at any time. Operatives sign in by PIN or card and are signed out when idle.

Access by role.

Every person sees only what their role allows. Suppliers see only their own products, orders and deliveries.

A full audit trail.

Every record carries the person, the tablet and the time. Signed sheets are fixed once signed.

Your data, always exportable.

Fleet, installations and stock export as CSV and reports as PDF, whenever you need them.
