Digitalization and consolidated data collection

Traceability of all assembly actions including also missed or wrong tasks from all stations, parts and products. Full overview and perfect preparation for rework or repair station to avoid defect products leaving the plant.

Did you know the top 5 mistake proofing techniques to achieve first time quality in your manufacturing facility?

According to a recent study, human errors alone cause an extraordinary 23% of unplanned downtime in manufacturing. These errors, and resulting defects, are a large cause of manufacturing quality issues and unplanned downtime. Mistake proofing, also referred to as Poka-Yoke, is a Japanese ideology describing any method used to detect and prevent errors that cause defects. Read the full story on the top 5 five mistake proofing techniques here.


Discover how comprehensive error proofing software solutions drive quality, process reliability, transparency and product safety

The Scalable Quality Solution 3 (SQS3) eliminates errors in product assembly regardless of whether you start with a single station, a production cell or you want to manage the process of your assembly line. Up to 10 stations can be connected, even different products or variations of products. SQS3 ensures product quality, process reliability, and transparency as well as product safety at each assembly station. It guides your operators through the assembly process leaving no room for error or oversight. Our white-paper on error-proofing and quality assurance gives you a deeper insight in how to optimize your processes in industrial assembly.

Remarkable success stories with a strong impact on return on investment
For a seat producing company, the implementation of error proofing functionalities in their assembly line now creates annual savings of USD 1 million - not considering the increase in customer satisfaction by doing it "right first time".
Why is that?
Assembly processes in industrial manufacturing, especially in Motor Vehicle Industry, get more and more complex: a high number of variants, parts, tools, assembly steps and often safety-critical tightenings. High pressure on operators caused by short cycles makes these processes even more complex. Download our case study overview to discover the values of implementing error proofing functionalities in assembly processes.
