Transportation and Defense

Manufacturers and suppliers in the transportation and defense industries use WinSPC to drive down the cost of quality and reduce scrap

Transportation and defense companies are required to verify parts are being made to customer specifications and are often expected to provide regular updates that ensure quality levels are being met. Whether your operations include machining, stamping, molding, forging, grinding, welding, assembly, or some other precision process, there are established quality procedures and critical quality checks to be completed, and corrective actions must be taken when deviations or defects occur. By storing all the resulting data into a central system your quality program is easily monitored and analyzed for continuous improvement, and professional reports can be generated with a click.

• Automatically collect data from gages, CMMs and almost any metrology device
• Simple operator interface is easy to use and operators are trained in minutes
• Identify trends and prevent parts from being machined outside tolerances
• Quickly generate professional Quality reports for PPAP’s, such as Capability Studies
• Monitor performance by machine, cell, part number, lot, and more

If you are currently only writing quality test results on paper or typing data into Excel, then the return on investment for an automated system is typically realized within 4 months.
