| Impressive announcements often turn out to
conceal rather modest advances. This is why we believe that
innovative users of image processing systems will be even
more pleased to hear the latest news from visicontrol. There
is a new software product: the SPC software for PCs. Not an
unusable mega-package but a product developed on the basis
of Microsoft Excel for practical quality assurance.
Nowadays, SPC (statistical process control) is first and
foremost thought of as automatic data acquisition, plus the
monitoring and visualisation of this data. Trends have to
be identified and "worst case" scenarios have to be reacted
to immediately. The acquired data must be stored centrally
and accessed selectively to obtain information on quality.
These few basic functions are combined in the visicontrol
SPC software to create a powerful tool.
The recorded and centrally stored data is analysed according
to different criteria for planning and management. Shift,
daily, weekly, monthly or annual reports on different parts,
machines or orders are compiled with a click of the mouse.
Everyone can estimate the cost reduction potential for themselves.
