Innovate  MetalAiQ · Metals & Manufacturing · R&D

Never run the same trial twice.

MetalAiQ turns every approved lab result into permanent R&D intelligence — so your metallurgists go from a customer spec to a validated, audit-ready grade in weeks, not months, with the proof to defend every decision. It's the metals expression of the Innovate-AiQ closed loop.

The problem

Steel R&D today: data-rich, model-poor, knowledge-leaky.

Your labs generate more data than ever — and answer the same questions over and over, because none of it compounds.

01
Knowledge is siloedDecades of grade specs, trial data, and metallurgical reports scattered across folders, ELNs, and spreadsheets. "Has anyone tried this before?" has no answer.
02
Standards outrun your libraryCustomer specs and standards (EN, ASTM, ISO, NACE) evolve faster than internal grade libraries can adapt and stay defensible.
03
Trials are slow & costlyEach lab trial costs €50k–€500k and runs 6–12 weeks — and many re-answer a question already settled elsewhere in the business.
04
Expertise walks out the doorCritical know-how retires with your senior metallurgists, and nothing captures why a grade was designed the way it was.
How MetalAiQ works

One closed loop, from question to validated grade.

The same disciplined Amplinth loop, tuned to metallurgy — every approved trial makes the platform smarter.

01

Connect

Ingest specs, standards & trial history; connect to your LIMS (SAP QM, LabWare, STARLIMS, Sample Manager).

02

Reason

A metallurgical knowledge graph + real CALPHAD physics. Trust Tiers T1–T6 on every parameter. No black box.

03

Recommend

Pareto fronts, Bayesian optimization & SHAP narrow the design space before the furnace.

04

Act

Closed lab-trial loop: request → execute → capture → review → approve. Every approval retrains the surrogate.

05

Prove

30–50% fewer trials · modelled; one-click EN 10204 3.1 certificate.

Capabilities

27 modules across four pillars.

A complete R&D workbench — knowledge, materials science, lab operations and governance — built as one platform, not a stack of point tools.

P1 · Knowledge Intelligence

Grade Explorer across 2,294 indexed grades; specifications & equivalence mapping (EN / ASTM / JIS); Document Intelligence (IntelliKnow) extracting specs, tables & microstructure into a hierarchy graph; graph-aware RAG with citations to standards, papers and your own approved trials; knowledge-graph viewers for Grade ↔ Spec ↔ Trial ↔ Property ↔ Outcome.

P2 · Materials Science Engine

Real CALPHAD engine (pycalphad Gibbs-energy minimisation, KG-augmented, with Schaeffler/DeLong/PREN fallback); recommendation engine across 13 endpoints (Pareto + Bayesian Optimisation with GP + Expected Improvement + SHAP); DoE engine (factorial, Box-Behnken, Plackett-Burman, optimal); phase modelling & weld simulation; failure-analysis assistant.

P3 · LIMS & Lab Operations

Sample registration & chain of custody; the closed lab-trial loop (request → execute → capture → review → approve); instrument registry, calibration, maintenance & inventory; TAT / SLA dashboards with breach detection; external customer portal & event-driven notifications.

P4 · Lifecycle & Governance

Production Digital Twin for industrial selection & supply-chain views; ISO 17025 dashboard; one-click EN 10204 Type 3.1 Certificate of Analysis in minutes; Trust Tiers T1–T6 grading every parameter by source quality; e-signed, immutable approval audit trail; enterprise LIMS connectors.

2,294 grades and 3,497 approved CALPHAD parameters, running in one live, closed-loop production deployment.
Live with a global steel & specialty-alloy producer — the only closed online learning loop of its kind in steel R&D today. Every approved trial retrains the per-family surrogate, so institutional know-how compounds instead of retiring.

Live deployment figures are Realized; the client is shown anonymized until its name is cleared for public use. Throughput and time figures are stated for full (Level-3) adoption.

How it works

Connect → Customize → Operate.

Connect MetalAiQ to your specs, standards, trial history & LIMS. Customize it to your grade library and workflows — the shape is reusable; the science is what we tailor. Operate the closed loop in production, where every approved trial makes the platform smarter. Your R&D IP and trial data never leave your control.

Why Amplinth

Not just an AI tool — a metallurgy memory.

/ 01

Industry-deep

Purpose-built for steel & specialty-alloy R&D — real CALPHAD physics and a metallurgical knowledge graph, not a generic copilot bolted onto your documents. The only closed learning loop of its kind in production today.

/ 02

Governed & explainable

Neurosymbolic grounding + provenance: every prediction names its model, its training data, and a confidence band tied to actual residuals. Trust Tiers T1–T6 gate every parameter by source quality.

/ 03

Proven

Fewer trials, faster qualification, compliance in minutes — quantified by EVA. Compliance is a feature, not a project: automatic audit trail, e-signatures and one-click standards packs.
