Beyond Customer Expectations for a Fraction of the Typical Cost

This was a SCADA/HMI pilot project for automated statistical process control (SPC) with in-line data capture of incoming and outgoing quality of vehicle-door and hood-gap measurements using wireless digital calipers. The customer — a large automobile manufacturer — was seeking a solution that would help it improve the manual process of measuring door and hood gaps by team members on a moving assembly line.

Visualizing Data for Improved Repeatability

RollDVR provides deep-drill click visualization and analysis of roll manufacturing wind-in and wind-out properties. The project allows roll build replay with direct association of machine process points, recipe settings, and time series charting using a slider on a scaled vector graphic to select point-of-time for display. Through the use of a best-fit algorithm, roll-to-roll process point comparison is available to assist in root cause analysis.
