Intelligent Displacement Sensor Deployment Using MTConnect Protocol over Ethernet

TBMG-2729308/01/2017

Quality measurements for design validation and certification requirements sometimes call for hundreds or thousands of sensors and actuators. Maintaining such a complex system is difficult, especially over an extended time period and inevitable personnel changes. Many hours are spent tracking down sensor problems related to the sensor, associated cables, mounting hardware, or some part of the data acquisition system. These are expensive, labor-intensive hours that consume valuable technical resources

A Quality System Database

TBMG-7829

04/01/2010

A quality system database (QSD), and software to administer the database, were developed to support recording of administrative nonconformance activities that involve requirements for documentation of corrective and/or preventive actions, which can include ISO 9000 internal quality audits and customer complaints. [“ISO 9000” denotes a series of standards, published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), for implementation of quality systems to be used in contractual situations.] The software provides for recording and storage of data, enables tracking, and provides status information

The QUALITY race continues

AUTOJUL08_0207/01/2008

As end-user expectations continue to rise, and pressure on engineering and manufacturing processes spiral, AEI's European Editor interviewed a number of OEM executives for their thoughts on quality and strategies for better vehicles. Sir Henry Royce would utter a brief riposte to anyone who had the temerity to suggest that Rolls-Royce motor cars were a shade too expensive: “The quality remains long after the price is forgotten,” Today, every new car on the market, whatever its cost, must have embedded quality That does not mean just high-value trim or systems but fundamental quality of design, build, impressive torsional rigidity figures, and a rigorous development program to prove that marketing messages about quality are true and not wishful thinking

Managing Value Stream Risk

2006-01-238908/30/2006

A typical risk assessment or audit used in industry today will look at a single organizations risk in an isolated business system dimension, such as the management system, product, or process deployed at a specific company. Risk must be found in both material and information flows and quantified in order to enable effective management decisions. Value Stream Risk Assessment™ (VSRA™) is a tool to identify, quantify, prioritize, and intelligently mitigate risk wherever it resides in a the Value Stream. VSRA™ has been developed to compliment Lean and Six Sigma techniques and enhances the quality audit process to provide more value to the organization

The Future of NVH Testing - An End User's Perspective

2005-01-227005/16/2005

The role of NVH testing has evolved from a firefighting role and a period of exploration to a well defined standard test role in the product development and validation process. Integral to this process is robust engineering, which drives the need to execute many tests quickly, efficiently and accurately. This allows the NVH specialist to concentrate on interpretation of results and spend less time on the acquisition of data. As the volume of data grows, this creates the opportunity to data mine an NVH database to compare results from large sample sizes and focus on product variation. Today's NVH laboratory is accountable for producing high quality, consistent, timely, and cost effective test reports. The basic core of the test has to be easy to set up and execute for a novice, yet still allow for exploratory tests by specialists as necessary. The NVH laboratory is now subject to the same budgetary pressures and quality audits as other testing operations. This paper presents the basic

Achieving Quality Through Flexible Inspection

91164208/01/1991

Machine vision has historically been used as a quality audit tool in the automotive industry. New generation vision hardware offers the potential for integrating machine vision into the manufacturing process as an interactive process control tool. This paper is a case study in the application of machine vision integrated into a production line to feed process control data to a system controller in addition to performing statistical process control functions on a real time basis. The paper describes the initial application of the concept referred to as Flexible Inspection, [5]*, [11], and an example inspection algorithm for determining the presence/absence of components on a printed circuit board. The production activity chosen for the study is a printed circuit assembly line in an automotive electronics assembly plant. The potential impact of this type of system on automotive manufacturing is assessed through empirical data. Flexible inspection will reduce process variability while

Are You Prepared for the New Shot Peening Specifications

90096004/01/1990

There has been a flurry of actlvity lately to revlse the specifications that control the processlnq of parts subject to fatigue and corrosion fatigue failures. Our aginq Commercial, Mllitary and Civll airplane fleets, coupled wlth the costs of replacement, have caused great pressures to extend component operating life. Stress cycling of both englne and airframe hardware often is sufficient to cause fatigue damage. Shot peening has been proven to increase the ability of these parts to withstand significant increases in stress cycling. Other factors (corrosion, fretting and foreign object damage, to name a few) cause stress concentrations which are often initiation points for fatigue damage. Shot peening is used to encapsulate those stress concentrations in layers of residual compression thereby offsetting the conditions for fatigue damage. It has become very obvious to those responsible for the safe operation of aircraft that the residual compressive stress from shot peening is a
