Software and Its Role in Quality Control
Industrial software has played a role in quality control, not only for the measuring system but also for the whole manufacturing process. Some tool manufacturers have done research and developed a measuring system which recognizes and plays a significant role in the development of software to work with other measuring tools to increase the ability to measure a variety of workpieces. There is a wide range of specialized software for CAD/CAM, for measurement control, for production data analysis and for the improvement of quality control and the manufacturing efficiency, such as an analysis to determine the right tools for the production of each workpiece, as well as Statistical Process Control (SPC), a comparison of the optimal work condition, an analysis of workpiece surface, in order to check the completeness and the quality of the workpiece and the quality of the assembled workpiece. The data collected are no longer from each individual machine but rather from the integration between machine and tools to send the data to the central unit. This means that the data will be 100% complete as required by the customers.
Revolutionizing Manufacturing Process with Automation Solutions
With the above-mentioned factors, the measurement of workpiece in the manufacturing process requires flexibility, a shorter timeframe, and an instant accessibility to the measurements during the manufacturing process. There are also other factors such as a lower cost of investment, a better use of energy but still a standard level of measuring efficiency. Therefore, it is not surprising why this system is gaining popularity and attention from around the world. According to the vision of the development for industry 4.0, the software is able to be adapted to well suit each type of work. This will allow you to customize the additional details to back up in the database. You can also record the history of the production line throughout the process as well. With this software, all the work will be fully recorded with the production process, tools and equipment used for production. Importantly, the data will be evaluated for further production processes or product quality. It means that if that product is produced again, the machine will be able to respond and operate promptly without re-setting the tools, machinery and measuring instruments. Thus, the production line will be able to run continuously and produce products quickly with high quality.
