Hi Paddydaddy,

I'm also a beginner in TRIZ, but I have some ideas. As I can see, you have arrived to the technical contradiction, so the next step should be to identify the Idea Final Solution, what is in my meaning a supplier who produces and delivers perfect castings for free. Certainly the "for free" is somewhere virtual. If I want to interpret this to the Contradiction Matrix I can find the following: If I understand the low cost as high productivity, and the high quality as Manufacturing precision then the Matrix gives the followings: 10: Prior action, 18: Mechanical vibration, 32 Colour change, 39: Inert atmosphere.

For me there are several ideas coming out of this: If you apply the principle prior action it tells me that if you apply good preparation with a potential supplier BEFORE starting deliveries, you can reach a better quality for lower price. To tell honestly we had similar successful projects in the near past with casting suppliers.

My other idea is about the principle 39, there is a technology called vacuum casting, what means that there is vacuum generated in the casting dye before the melted metal is sprayed in.

In my meaning this works something like this. Certainly if you want to apply the complete ARIZ methodology, you need to do much more, but that would mean another story.

I hope I could help...
