What is ERP software for forging industry?

ERP software for forging industry is a specialized manufacturing ERP designed to manage forging-specific processes such as billet tracking, heat number traceability, forging production control, yield analysis, quality inspection, and job-wise costing.

How is forging ERP different from generic ERP?

Unlike generic ERP systems, forging ERP supports heat-wise traceability, billet yield calculation, furnace and press monitoring, scrap control, and forging sequence management, which are critical for forging manufacturing operations.

Can forging ERP reduce raw material wastage?

Yes. Forging ERP software tracks billet weight, recovery percentage, and scrap generation in real time, helping manufacturers reduce material losses and improve yield across forging processes.

How does forging ERP help in costing and profitability?

Forging ERP provides accurate job-wise and part-wise costing by allocating raw material, power, fuel, labor, and overhead costs, giving real-time visibility into production cost, margins, and profitability.

Illustration with sample data

Where forging units lose margin

Heavy material, thin margins, little visibility

Forging runs on expensive steel, long machine hours and customers who ask for full traceability. When heat numbers, rejections and outside processing are tracked on paper, both quality and margin slip.

Heat number lost

Which heat went into which lot is found by searching registers when a customer asks.

Rejection seen late

Rejection and scrap are counted at month-end, not on the shift.

Material at vendors

Parts at machining or coating vendors are not tracked until overdue.

Cost per order unknown

Steel, machine time and rework per order are added up after dispatch.

One continuous flow

From billet to dispatch, heat by heat

01 · Purchase & gate

Steel received at the gate against the PO, by heat number.

02 · Incoming QC

Heat number and MTC recorded; accepted and rejected quantity with a reason.

03 · Plan

Work orders from customer schedules; job cards on each machine’s hours.

04 · Forging

Material issued batch-wise; output, rejection and scrap recorded.

05 · Outside processes

Machining, coating or plating at vendors on returnable gate passes.

06 · Inspection

In-process and final inspection, first-time-right and PPM.

07 · Dispatch & invoice

Packing slip, GST invoice and receipts.

What Tejaxo ERP controls in a forging unit

Heat number and MTC

Heat number and MTC captured at incoming quality and carried with the batch from receipt to invoice.

Batch traceability

Batch numbers at every step – PO, gate, receipt, QC, issue, operations, finished batch, packing slip and invoice – forward and backward.

Machine-wise planning

Job cards scheduled forward on each machine’s hours; machines needed vs available with load %.

Rejection and yield

Rejection with a reason, PPM, defect Pareto, first-time-right, cost of poor quality, scrap-yield and OEE reports.

Outside processes

Machining, plating, coating or painting at vendors on returnable gate passes, with pending, ageing, charges and ITC-04; stock in pieces billed in kg where needed.

Work-order costing

Steel at its receipt rate, machine minutes, labour and overhead per work order, against the invoiced value.

Customer schedules

Delivery schedules per order line, day-wise dispatch plan and OTIF.

Purchase control

Gate entry, GRN and 3-way match; vendor rating, price trends and coil- or batch-wise stock.

For the owner

FAQ

Questions forging units ask

What is ERP software for the forging industry?

One system for a forging unit: steel purchase by heat number, incoming quality with MTC, machine-wise planning, forging output and rejection, outside processes, inspection, dispatch, GST and accounts.

Can Tejaxo ERP trace a part back to its heat number?

Yes. The heat number and MTC are recorded at incoming quality and the batch is carried through every step to the packing slip and invoice.

How is machining or coating at vendors tracked?

Material goes out on returnable gate passes and comes back against them, with pending quantity, ageing, job-work charges and ITC-04 from the same records.

Can we see rejection and yield per order?

Yes. Rejection is recorded with a reason, and PPM, scrap-yield and first-time-right reports show where losses happen.

Does it work for casting and foundry units?

Yes. The same heat- and batch-wise traceability, yield and job-work control apply; metal processing including casting is part of our implementation experience.

Do you support forging units in Faridabad and Ballabhgarh?

Yes. Both are close to our Palwal office, so on-site support is quick; we also work across India.
