Plastic Manufacturing

Master batch, regrind, mould scheduling and scrap recovery on a costing engine that actually balances.

Plastic moulding, blow moulding and extrusion run on cycle times, mould schedules and the constant balancing of virgin material against regrind. Master batch (colour) usage, scrap recovery and mould availability are the difference between a profitable shift and a loss. Pipetal models all of it.

Where the day breaks

What hurts in Plastic.

These are the friction points the owner already knows. Generic ERPs paper over them. Pipetal handles them by design.

Virgin and regrind get mixed in different ratios, costing never matches reality

Master batch (colour) usage runs over budget shift after shift

Mould availability and downtime is a verbal report, not a number

Scrap recovery is an afterthought, the GL never sees the regrind credit

Multi-cavity moulds break and the cost of one cavity is invisible

Customer-supplied moulds need their own depreciation and maintenance trail

What Pipetal does

How we solve it for Plastic.

BoM allows virgin and regrind ratios with master batch as a separate input

Mould master with availability calendar, downtime log and cavity-level tracking

Scrap and regrind recovery captured as byproducts with proper GL credit

Production shifts with team-level performance and rejection rate

Customer-supplied mould flag for assets that the customer owns but you operate

Per-cycle costing so a 30-second cycle vs a 45-second cycle shows up in margin

Material wastage report by mould, by shift and by operator

Standout features

What teams in this vertical love most

Regrind that actually balances

Scrap from yesterday is regrind today. The system stamps the regrind as a byproduct, posts the GL credit and lets you set a virgin-to-regrind ratio at the BoM level. No more unaccounted material.

Master batch budget, shift by shift

Set the budgeted grams per kilogram of master batch. The system flags shifts that exceed the budget and shows you which operator is over-pigmenting.

Moulds as a real asset

Each mould has a master, a cavity count, a downtime log. Customer-supplied moulds are flagged separately. Mould-level OEE becomes a number you can act on.

Questions

Frequently asked

Yes. Define regrind as a byproduct in the BoM. Each production order captures regrind quantity, posts the credit to the inventory account and reduces the unit cost of the finished good.

A flag on the mould master marks it as customer-owned. Depreciation is skipped, but downtime, maintenance and per-cycle output are all tracked the same way as company-owned moulds.
