Reduce Defects, Scrap, Waste or Give-away

DataNet customers report they reduce manufacturing scrap, waste, defects or rework by up to 50 percent using WinSPC. WinSPC allows shop-floor operators to monitor product and process quality in real-time, so they are better able to detect, correct, and prevent process variation that causes defects. In addition to reducing scrap, our customers tell us that real-time SPC allows them to:

• Improve manufacturing yield
• Increase uptime, capacity and throughput
• Meet FDA, ISO and TS regulatory requirements
• Increase customer satisfaction
• Reduce manufacturing costs

How a $5 billion manufacturer of indoor comfort systems reduced scrap by 50 percent and continues to “hold onto its gain” using WinSPC and Six Sigma

Manufacturing the highest quality refrigerant coils for a variety of cooling systems had traditionally created a costly amount of scrap coils, copper, and aluminum during the manufacturing process, as the quality assurance process was primarily completed after parts had been manufactured. By the time a faulty part was produced, it was too late. To achieve higher product yield and profitability, the company turned to Six Sigma and real-time SPC to build quality control into the manufacturing process.

By using Six Sigma methodologies and incorporating real-time SPC into the manufacturing process, the company was able to diagnose and correct process errors before scrap was produced. The company reported a reduced scrap rate of fifty percent and a return on the software investment within four months.

Reduce your manufacturing scrap, defects, waste and give-away using WinSPC:

• Chart, control and monitor real-time processes with control charts
• Sound alarms or alert operators and managers when processes require corrective action
• Empower operators to take immediate corrective action , or trigger auto-corrective actions
• Give managers a real-time, birds-eye view of all your manufacturing processes
• Give your quality team the real-time data and Six Sigma analysis tools to define, measure, analyze, improve, and control your process faster than ever before
• Give your operators and managers the tools to sustain the gains of Six Sigma
• Reduce material waste by up to 50% and reduce the environmental footprint of your processes
