Statistical Process Control (SPC)

To compete in business, companies must be committed to improving quality. SPC is a powerful tool for monitoring product and process quality and facilitating continuous improvement efforts.

The IQMS SPC module gathers part data entered from the plant floor, allowing for the input and analysis of attribute and variable data.

  • Charts are generated based on the type of data, and include X bar-R charts for subgroups, X-MR charts for individuals, histograms for both types of data, and p and np charts for attributes.

  • Values for Cpk, Ppk, Cr, control limits, etc. are tailored to the type of data entered, and are provided in an easy to read summary form each time a chart is generated.

  • The real-time trend chart and Quick Inspection features give operators a real-time view of process performance.

  • Enables data collection using measurement gages/devices with a data port.

  • Visual color coding and audible warnings if measurements are out of specification.

  • Charts and data are exported directly to Microsoft Word®, with the added ability to export data directly to Excel® for further analysis via third party graphing and analysis tools.
