Minitab Real Time Statistical Process Control Solution: RealTime SPC
RealTime SPC combines seamless data automation from multiple data sources with the leading statistical analysis engine.
Minitab®’s cloud-based IPK solution RealTime SPC, which provides next-generation real-time statistical process control, can collect and analyze detailed and real-time data from locations around the country or the world, enabling appropriate proactive or remedial steps to be taken to meet production targets with quality on-site and on time. .
The Minitab Connect data access and data management engine seamlessly integrates all your relevant data sources to reflect a complete picture of operations. RealTime SPC serves at-a-glance monitoring and analysis by generating real-time statistical control charts from this centralized and integrated quality data, and by running relevant control tests and visualizing their results.
Single, group and proportional control charts in the RealTime SPC inventory are automatically updated with dynamic data fed in real time, and insights are presented with sharing and collaboration tools. As soon as changes in the data that may cause problems occur, instant process feedback and real-time alerts are sent to the process managers.
Definition of Statistical Process Control
Statistical process control (Statistical Process Control, SPC, Tr: IPK) is a standard methodology used to measure, monitor and control quality with data obtained from a process. Organizations in both the manufacturing and service industries, which focus on process improvement for early detection of problems for maximum efficiency, less cost, and higher quality product/service production, frequently use SPC’s key tools such as control charts and capability analysis. You can find more basic information about the IPK here.
Real-Time IPC
Ideally, the SPC should focus on the inputs of the process, not its outputs. Insights about the process obtained from the SPC tools should be applied to the process even before the outputs are spoiled, and the SPC should play an error-preventing role. Especially in the data collection and interpretation of the outputs obtained from the SPC tools, the necessity of human beings prevents the realization of this ideal.
Developing technologies enable simultaneous monitoring and control of processes, as well as making it applicable not only to output but also to inputs, as is the ideal of SPC today.
The Real-Time SPC concept focuses on the ability to monitor process data in real-time and receive immediate alerts when quality will change. This will help you and your team to identify and quickly resolve issues before they affect quality or costs.
In Real-Time SPC, product and process information should be collected in real time, and changes in process data should be quickly controlled and corrected without exceeding tolerances. For this, operators and process managers should also be provided with instant alerts, triggers and other event management tools.
Implementing Real-Time SPC is a time- and cost-saving solution with a high return on investment.
In order to implement real-time SPC, (1) collection of output and effective input data from the field and (2) rapid and automatic analysis of these collected data, (3) rapid implementation decisions based on the insights obtained from the analysis results are required.
