Causal analysis of the effects of deviations of critical process characteristics from reference values
SOLUTION: DiGi Smart Control
DiGi Smart Control is a response to the growing requirements regarding the quality and speed of making operational decisions, improving human resources management and increasing production efficiency. Because, according to P. Drucker, no problem we encounter in life exists in a form that can be solved directly and immediately by making a decision. Elements that at first glance seem to be the essence of the problem are, at best, its symptoms. The most visible symptoms are often the least valuable and even misleading. Therefore, quick reaction in case of detecting symptoms of unfavorable changes in key parameters of production processes becomes an asset allowing for effective strengthening of the company's competitive position on the market.
The DiGi Smart Control platform is an analytical system supporting decision-making at all levels of process capacity and product quality management. The architecture of the DiGi Smart Control system includes three layers mapping the hierarchies of decision-making processes in production process management. It supports machine and equipment operators, engineers supervising the process (leaders) and middle and top management staff. Thanks to advanced business analytics and a unique information presentation technique based on the 'cognitive load weight' theory, the DiGi Smart Control platform becomes a leading decision support system focused on improving production processes.

DEMO
How it works?
Operator's App
The module provides, for process-defined technological operations, DiGital versions of control and measurement procedures
Benefits:
- Full mapping of part number control plans schedule
- Automation and DiGitalisation of measurements
- Records of measurements carried out cyclically
- Ongoing quality control of measurement data in the sample
- Correction of measurement errors
- Information on the need to start the measurement process
- Support of machine calibration
- Access to technical documentation of a workpiece
- Available in several languages
Selected types of measurement tools integrated in the system
Cooperation with a wide range of measuring tools from renowned suppliers (e.g. Sylvac, Mitutoyo, Axis, OHAUS, Radwag)
Benefits:
- Complete data acquisition from measuring instruments directly from the control stations
- Data transfer to the system via various technologies. Wired via RS232 serial interface and wireless via Bluetooth, WiFi, etc.
- Full traceability of measurements taken (time, place, operator, detail, etc.)
- Reduction of costs, waste and downtime.
Flow of the measurement procedure
The operator starts the procedure for checking the key production parameters of the detail (any combination of quantitative and qualitative features)
The measurements taken directly from the control station are sent to the DiGi Smart Control system (administration module)
The current status of the process, together with a presentation of the results, is available to the Process Engineer in the TV Wall application (monitoring module)
Process capability indicators, control cards, analyses and multidimensional reporting are available in the SPC application (Analysis module)
Ongoing monitoring of measurement processes
This module provides a real-time view of the status of control and measurement processes in any cross-section (e.g. machine/socket
Benefits:
- Monitoring process stability, observing threat symptoms
- Current reporting of process status - an easy, convenient and intuitive tool ensuring high efficiency of process capability analysis
Examples of analytical views
The module provides cross-sectional, in-depth analysis consistent with the SPC methodology, 8D Report
Benefits:
- SPC process capability indicators
- Feature decomposition analysis
- Control cards, warning forecasts
- data mining, knowledge discovery - identification of potential defects/defects in the finished product and/or at the end of individual phases of production processes
- Multidimensional reporting - identification of causes of defects/defects
- Analyses of cause-and-effect relationships between data
- Analyses of trends and correlations
- Access to historical data of SPC process capability indicators and warning forecasts
- Ongoing operation of operators - monitoring of deviations from the reference target
- Built-in rules for interpretation of process capability indicators
- Reporting
