Benefits of eFlex Vision:
- Advance Quality Management Efforts: Reduce first-time quality hits by reducing false rejects and bad part approval due to camera issues. Archive all images produced by inspection cameras to quickly retrieve in the event of a quality spill. Easily search the storage database to quickly contain quality spills by easily finding the “start” and “end” of the spill.
- Improve Warranty Claim Management Capabilities: Images can be used for warranty claim reviews and improved root cause analysis. Images of other parts manufactured at the same stations, times and/or lots can be reviewed to determine larger production problems. Comply with #FDA21 CFR Part 11 audit trails to help protect against warranty claims.
- Eliminate High-Cost Resources: Managing and storing production images manually is time consuming and expensive. Our web-based solution simplifies the process, reduces or eliminates manual labor, reduces the number of computers needed, and bridges the gap between IT and the plant floor.
- Support Decision Making: Receive real-time, actionable information to enable process control, predictive maintenance, containment and more.
- And much more...
