Apriso Statistical Process ControlData Driven Quality Improvement

Enabling Consistent, High Quality Manufacturing Complex manufacturing techniques driven by ever-increasing competitive pressures to satisfy customer’s raised expectations has created a huge challenge for manufacturers. Compound this challenge for those firms operating on a global basis. Increasingly distributed operations, extended product supply networks and complex manufacturing techniques can all potentially impact product quality. Apriso Quality’s Statistical Process Control (SPC) capabilities help increase overall product quality by providing embedded, actionable SPC charts to the shop floor. Operators, process and quality engineers, and supervisors are alerted when the manufacturing process trends out of control. It is then possible to take immediate action to correct or prevent problems before they become critical issues. Apriso Quality’s SPC is an essential component to any Six Sigma program, as well as for quality representatives responsible for Lean manufacturing and other continuous improvement initiatives. By applying statistical analyses to key production line metrics, it is possible to monitor and reduce variability of processes within your plant or enterprise, contributing to fewer equipment failures while improving overall product quality and customer satisfaction.

Embed SPC at Any Workstation Multiple vendors offer SPC tools to calculate statistical measurements and print reports, however, this capability won’t help an operator on the shop floor. The challenge is how to use these calculations to alert the user – in real-time – that immediate action is required. Apriso lets users embed SPC data within manufacturing process flows, resulting in real-time SPC charts deployed within a user’s work station console. If processes trend out of control, users can be instantly notified so corrective actions can be performed immediately. DELMIA’s Apriso supports and improves the Plan, Do, Check, Act (PDCA) process flow within manufacturing operations. Apriso measures product and process quality while enabling the execution of actions based on these measurements.

Data Sheet Take Immediate Action, Improve Performance

DELMIA understands the importance of visibility into and control of the production process as well as the need to take immediate action. Once alerted, performance can’t improve without action, which traditional SPC solutions lack. Built upon Apriso’s Business Process Management (BPM) engine, corrective actions can be configured to any SPC alert. Examples include scheduling a maintenance order, diverting production or placing an article on hold.

Part of the Total Apriso Solution Apriso SPC is a key component of DELMIA’s broader Apriso solution for manufacturing operations management. With Apriso you can manage production, quality, warehouse, maintenance and labor processes to achieve visibility into, control over and synchronization across global manufacturing operations. Built with a native Business Process Management (BPM) framework that incorporates a unified data model, Apriso applications enable continuous improvement and rapid response to market changes. Apriso delivers a global view of manufacturing operations by utilizing a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) to ease integration with enterprise applications, such as ERP and PLM, while interfacing with the shop floor and automation equipment.
