How to cut production downtime using data you’re already collecting
See how we helped a manufacturer achieve faster root cause analysis, higher yields, and improved product quality—all by making better use of their data.
Take the guesswork out of finding your limits
Finding the right limits for your in-process tests is crucial to achieve the highest production yields and minimize the risks of defective parts slipping through. We explore how waveforms, or digital process signatures, can be used to achieve this, quickly and reliably.
Quality assurance is falling short? Consider a retrofit before a rip-and-replace
The fix for a quality assurance system that just isn’t making the grade doesn't necessarily require a costly rip-and-replace. Sciemetric explores how an existing system can instead be retrofitted to gain some smarts with tools for digital process signature analysis.
Improve crimp testing with non-destructive methods
In-process testing and digital process signature analysis eliminates the need for destructive pull-tests in crimp operations, while at the same time providing a near perfect degree of quality assurance that a pull-test just can't deliver. Learn how Sciemetric solutions improve crimp operations.
5 ways to improve your production line in 2020
Here are 5 tips to help improve your production line in 2020. We want to help manufacturers identify their problem points on the line and identify ways modern manufacturing technologies can be applied to start seeing improvements in the short-term—without a massive overhaul.
Continuously monitor and improve production using digital process signatures
This blog post discusses how digital process signatures can be employed when a new quality problem crops up in the field, to identify the root cause and enable continuous improvement on your production line.
Dear John: How do I catch a noisy actuator on the plant floor?
Question: Dear John, How do I catch a noisy actuator on the factory floor with all that background noise? Do I need to move the part to a “quiet room”? Answer: Well now, that’s a very good question. The problem with trying to pick up specific sounds, such as click…
The metric that could save you millions in manufacturing costs: The ROI of improving first time yield
In this post, we discuss the ROI investing in the improvement of your FTY results—including a case study which describes how we helped one manufacturer achieve over 3 million dollars in savings in one year by improving their FTY, decreasing their scrap and rework costs.
