MDT: UK

Notes

We are working on this database and would appreciate if you can help us add materials and improve the alternate name in this list. Our objective is to include generic materials in each MDT and maintain name-brand versions of these for each area of the world. In education, the generic or theoretical materials are employed in ceramic calculations, whereas in industry the chemistries for the specific materials are used.

The MDT download page offers the ability to maintain a custom MDT file (you have to be logged in to do this). On the download page you can choose this MDT as the starter and then add any material (from the thousands available). You can also change the name of any of the materials you add thus you can translate the table into your language. You can add any material (even ones that are already in this starter MDT) for the purpose of changing the name. Then generate the MDT and download it (and put it in the INSIGHT data folder).

The future of ceramic recipe, material and physical testing record keeping is here.
Watch the video or sign-up at http://insight-live.com.

Maintain your recipe database on-line

  • Login to a private account or work with others in a group account (e.g. university).
  • Nothing to install (access it using your web browser). It is always the latest version.
  • Easy to import your existing data.
  • As many side-by-side recipes as you want.
  • Many ways to search and classify glaze and body recipes.
  • Glaze and body recipes are robust, with units-of-measure, unlimited pictures with individual titles and descriptions.
  • Add variations to a recipe; each with its own pictures, descriptions and name/code-number extensions.
  • Recipes can link to typecodes, projects and firing schedules (all managed in their own areas).
  • Standard reports and mix ticket reports with last-minute-totalling; variations report as if they are a complete recipe.
  • Video tutorials, help system, contact form on every page, dedicated messaging and support ticket systems.
  • It is an industrial-strength database system (unlimited capacity, fast, reliable, scalable).

Imports many file formats

  • Glaze recipe formats supported: HyperGlaze, GlazeGhem, GlazeMaster, Matrix, INSIGHT XML recipes (single and multiple), INSIGHT SQLite DB files.
  • Assign a batch number to imports, and later search by batch.
  • Assign multiple typecodes to imported glaze and body batches (to classify) and search on these later.
  • Prepend character sequences to glaze recipe names during import.
  • Import the pictures and pair them to their corresponding records automatically.
  • One click to automatically export the database to an SQLite DB database file and download it (for use with desktop INSIGHT or just as a backup).
  • Export and import individual glaze recipes as text or XML.

Perfect for Education

  • Ceramic study programs can now accumulate material, recipe and testing data year-after-year, students can login and together build a valuable ceramic glaze and body knowledge resource.
  • Students already have internet connected devices, computers are not even needed in the class.
  • The Reference Manager gives you quick access to the Digitalfire Ceramic Reference Database.
