Signature Analysis Beyond Press Force
Sciemetric CEO Nathan Sheaff discusses with Assembly Magazine how sensor technology has had to evolve to ensure accurate digital process signature analysis for production processes such as leak testing, crimping, and sound and vibration testing.
How to stay competitive in a connected revolution
In this feature published by Machine Design Magazine, Derek Kuhn, Sciemetric’s senior vice-president, argues why machine builders can’t ignore the growing use of process data by manufacturers to drive quality assurance, greater automation, efficiency and profitability. Manufacturers want this intelligence incorporated into a line as it is being built, rather than incur the time and expense of procuring equipment, hardware, and software from different vendors and trying to integrate it all together.
What can go wrong will
Even on a modern manufacturing line equipped to collect and analyze process data, something can always slip through the cracks to derail quality and efficiency. This is only to be expected. But what if a key assembly process still rests entirely with a human being manually completing a task? There is no obvious data trail, no process monitoring in real-time. What then? In this article, Sciemetric's Manufacturing IT Manager, Patrick Chabot discusses the importance of having a strategy for continuous improvement on the line.

Building better with data-driven analytics
Why should you as a machine builder/integrator care about incorporating data collection and analysis capability into your production process? Sciemetric's Senior VP and Account Manager, Aaron Alberts explore this topic in this article for Machine Design.
Five Ways to Rethink the Production Data Discussion
This article, by Cincinnati Test Systems’ Vice-President of Global Sales, discusses how to reframe the discussion on using production data to add more value and how to get buy in from the rest of your team so you can plan and implement a successful IIoT deployment.
Data Leads to Good Leak Test Decisions
Through the adoption of new leak testing approaches that provide comprehensive data about the entire leak test cycle, manufacturers can get more out of their leak test. Use of process signature technology that provides comprehensive data about the leak test offers manufacturers significant benefits that impact the bottom line. Investment in modern leak test technology delivers a quick ROI, supports compliance initiatives, improves productivity and ultimately, improves product quality.
The Industrial Revolution 4.0 - Data, Connectivity and Automation
Sciemetric CEO Nathan Sheaff shares his thoughts with the editors of OEM Off-Highway Magazine on how better tools for measurement, data analysis and data visualization are crucial for manufacturers to be more competitive and profitable in an Industry 4.0 world.
Waveform versus scalar data
Sciemetric product launch manager Robert Ouellette shares with Manufacturing Automation Magazine how digital process signature analysis takes take quality control on the production line to a new level. While SPC and scalar data continue to serve a useful role to monitor and track the health of a production line, it is signature analysis that offers the most effective means to quickly find and address root cause when problems arise.
