Medical Device Injection Molding Plant (Quality)
Quality improvement – Monitoring of process parameters for defect rate reduction
In a major medical and surgical manufacturing company, the inhouse digital team stalled when faced with huge challenges to connect to 70% of the equipment. Auk IoT was successfully deployed to bridge the gap.
Critical quality parameters are captured real-time to enable yield and defect rate actions. By connecting to the relevant control I/Os, key data such as peak injection pressure, cycletime, temperature, cushion level, etc. were streamed for quality monitoring and control
- Continuous stream of key parameters enable quick response to deviation and arrest of root causes
- Hybrid architecture deployed for both on-premise inhouse conventional database and cloud-enabled analytics
- Edge processor firmware developed for high performance sub-second parameter extraction and aggregation
