In the digital age, smart factory is not too far-fetched as manufacturers develop a smart manufacturing process and are capable to manage such process perfectly in order to meet much more consumer’s diverse and complex demands.
One of the prominent features in smart factory is its capability to utilize technologies in real time response to increase productivity and reduce waste generated in the process. MeasureLink is a measuring system analysis (MSA) and statistical analysis system designed for collecting data from several instruments, the obtained data is displayed as statistics in real time in order to monitor and control the process to ensure efficiency in measurement results; therefore, MeasureLink is ideal for modern quality control.
Preventive Measures against Product Scrapping is all data from measuring tools and instruments connected to the network is collected in real time, allowing process failure prediction by implementing statistical process control. Causal Analyses Enabled with Accumulated Data is immediate database access to measurement results enables statistical analysis to be applied for rapid identification of process issues.
Save Time on Recording and Reporting
Control and Reduce the Production Error
Real-Time:
Collect the data from various types of measuring instruments and display the
statistical data in real-time.
Process Manager: Monitor
the result in real-time and able to check the measuring result without going to
the job site.
Process Analyzer:
Analyze to compare the statistics by gaining access to the database in
real-time.
Gage R&R: Assess
and analyze the measuring system as specified in ISO/ST 16949.
Gage Management: Record
the storage of equipment, display the reparation status, and notify the
calibration in the system.
MeasurLink Data Collection/Analysis Software
MeasurLink Real-Time
MeasurLink Real-time is the Statistical Process Control (SPC) MeasurLink module that collects data from Mitutoyo and third-party measuring devices and systems to provide analysis functionality in real-time by displaying control charts, histograms, or process capability indexes. Three versions are offered so that a customer can choose the version that best suits the requirements, from a standard version providing basic functionality through to the full-spec version offering data handling using Hoops 3D graphics.
Real-Time Standard: Acquisition and analysis of measurement data in real-time.
Real-Time Professional: Higher functionality with native Mitutoyo integration (DDE) connectivity.
Real-Time Professional 3D: The full-spec version, able to display analysis results in 3D.
Automatic Report Generation Program
MeasurLink Report Scheduler
Automatically generates a report created by the Real-Time (Standard, Professional or Professional 3D) or Process Analyzer (Lite or Professional) modules.
Process Management for Administrators
MeasurLink Process Manager
MeasurLink Process Manager enables centralized monitoring of real-time measurement information from all MeasurLink data collection terminals networked together on the shop floor.
Process Analysis module for Administrators
MeasurLink Process Analyzer
MeasurLink Process Analyzer is a software package provided for administrators who are authorized to access the database storing measurement data collected by MeasurLink Real-time for the purpose of checking and analyzing measurement results.
Evaluation/Analysis Software for Measuring System Analysis (MSA)
MeasurLink Gage R&R
This is evaluation and analysis software conforming to Measurement System Analysis (MSA) required in ISO/ TS 16949.
ISO/ TS 16949 requires that a proper measurement system be achieved by analyzing the accuracy of each instrument and variations in operator effects on repeatability using statistical methods.
Gage Management Software
MeasurLink Gage Management
This software can plan and implement a reliable calibration schedule with a powerful retrieval function in addition to recording and controlling the usage state of gages.
To summarize, data logging, report generation, comparison and analysis of results obtained from statistical graphs can be done in less time with MeasureLink; it also helps control and minimize early failure (failure prediction), comes with automatic notification system and is provided with shared data lake and hierarchical database accessibility.
