The Minister of
Science and Technology Naledi Pandor launched a casting simulation network on
Thursday which will provide South Africa’s foundry sector with advanced
technology.
This technology
will hopefully provide vital inputs in the manufacturing industry. The Minister
believes this software will begin to fill a technology gap in the foundry
sector.
Ministerial
Spokesperson Lunga Ngqengelele said the Minister referred to the fact that
since 2011 the Department of Science and Technology supported a programme to
assist the foundry sector with Technology Assistance Packages.
Ngqengelele
added that our manufacturing industry needs and is looking at how we can
improve the service or the product that is being produced.
