Quality assurance - more transparency and control in the manufacturing process
Requirements
- The customer wants more transparency and an overview of important quality assurance (QA) information of different articles and process steps of a production series.
- All important QA information (target/actual, tolerance limits, IO/NIO parts) should be summarised per article and process step of any period and displayed on a dashboard.
Services & Solutions
- Consulting, planning and implementation by Controlware's experts.
- All data (from databases and production facilities) relevant for the evaluation were integrated and implemented in Splunk.
- Development of various self-service dashboards and visualisations to meet the customer's request for a complete solution of the quality assurance information of the production line.
- All QA information per item and process step can now be accessed using these dashboards.
Advantages & Benefits
- With the new platform, it is now possible to make all data visible, investigable, monitorable and analysable. This means that problems can be resolved more quickly.
- The centralised data storage and dynamic display of QA information provides the customer with a transparent overview of entire article series, as well as drill-down functionality for further information, up to and including a precise examination of the QA information of an individual part/hub.
- Tracebility in intralogistics makes it possible to track and archive every part with a serial number in all process cycles up to final assembly across site boundaries.
- This solution improves and optimises process efficiency and reduces costs.
