Transforming manufacturing businesses using real time data-driven insights that monitor and improve product quality, manufacturing capacity/output, process efficiencies and identifies areas for continuous improvements.

Tools Data Manager

Tools Data Manager (TDM) is an advanced data collection and analytical system enabling enhanced quality validation, behavioral deviation monitors and alerts, automatic quality and statistical sampling strategies, and real time visualization package that includes interactive activity dashboards and a comprehensive viewing/reporting tool.

TDM simplifies and centralizes the collection and management of all manufacturing process, quality and test data for archiving, viewing, trending, analyzing, alerting and mobilizing.

TDM features a comprehensive torque preformance module designed to collect data from all makes/models with advanced scientific analysis to reveal undetected failures.

TDM deploys quickly with seamless integration into existing processes and substantial user configurability that is easy to use.

ToolGuard^TM

Advanced asset management of your torque tools and other production tools designed to track and optimize the useful life of your production tools.

Auto scheduling for preventive maintenance, calibration and certification requirements of your torque tools. PM requirements are scheduled based on actual use of tool (wear factor offset) rather than on cycle count and calendar days.

ToolGuard includes a unique feature that monitors the amount of work in the bolted joint being tightened (with data availability) and the amount of work generated by the torque tool (duty cycle). If the tool is working harder than tool specifications, ToolGuard will alert you that the life of the tool is being shortened due to mismatch of work.

Detailed inventory and history records maintained including event completion, maintenance records and costs.

Weld Integrity Monitor

Early detection of hidden process failures is key to improving the quality of finished products and reducing cost impact of warranty related repairs once in the hands of the consumer.

By capturing detailed welding data in real time, WIM can analyze the behavior of materials and welding process during the welding activity to determine reportable deviations from normalized, baseline mappings of the welded joint which can create welding joints that are at high risk of premature failure.

Weld Integrity Monitor

Product Overview:

Weld Integrity Monitor is designed to allow welding engineers and welding quality experts to establish quality/integrity tracking for each robotic weld joint including setting alerts and escalation procedures. WIM will conduct detailed analysis on collected weld data by Tools Data Manager for each completed robotic weld joint and compare the results against the user defined baseline for normalcy and acceptability. If the results of the real time analysis deviates from the baseline, WIM will apply the user defined rules for initiating alerts based on % of deviation from the baseline.

WIM, therefore, is a complete set of tools for handling and analyzing critical processing data from robotic welding systems. These WIM tools allow the engineers to establish an acceptable baseline for each and every joint or set of joints to be welded and monitored. WIM tools also allow the engineers to determine the rules for alerts and alarms that will be used to notify the user of potential issues with welding results.
