Put an end to the paper chaos in quality control

Digital inspection processes and sample approvals carried out directly on the shop floor – mobile, traceable and audit-proof.

  • Mobile data capture via tablet
  • Digital inspection reports & approvals
  • Photos, checklists & traceability
  • Faster sample approvals & fewer errors

For quality management, production management, production control, shop floor digitalisation,
initial sampling & complaints processes.

​The challenge

Quality checks cost time, cause stress and lack transparency

Paper-based audit processes

→ labour-intensive and error-prone procedures

Excel instead of a central database

→ lack of transparency and duplication of work

Manual data entry

→ transcription and input errors

Lack of traceability

→ Risks during audits and in the event of complaints

Incomplete documentation

→ Lack of evidence and delays

Media breaks in the process

→ Inefficient coordination between departments

Long review and approval times

→ delayed production processes

Knowledge-dependent processes

→ high dependence on individual staff members

The solution

Digital quality inspection directly within the manufacturing process.

With the d.u.h. solution, you can fully digitise your inspection and approval processes – from on-the-job checks right through to final inspection. Inspectors record results directly on their mobile devices on the shop floor:

    • structured
    • standardised
    • understandable
    • audit-proof

PROCESS BLOCK

How digital quality control works

1
Connect the measuring device

Digital measuring instruments are connected once

2
Start the test order

Staff select the order directly at their workstation

3
Automatic data capture

Measurement values are imported directly — no manual data entry required

4
Real-time inspection & control

Tolerances and rules are checked automatically

5
Documentation & evaluation

All data is immediately available in the system

40% faster
thanks to reduced testing effort through digital and standardised processes
100% digital
Approvals and sample approvals without manual coordination loops
Audit-proof
All quality data available in one place, transparently and in an audit-proof format
Fewer errors
thanks to comprehensive, digital documentation of all quality data

​A seamless workflow

Greater transparency

→ Live status updates across the entire shop floor

A real-life example

Quality control using connected measuring equipment

A customer in the mechanical engineering sector had previously used separate measurement systems and paper-based documentation for quality control. With the introduction of the workstation, measurement values are now recorded automatically and 3D data from Teamcenter is visualised directly within the inspection process. All relevant quality and product information is available centrally at the workstation.

    • Automatische Übernahme von Messwerten
    • Visualisierung von 3D-Daten aus Teamcenter
    • Weniger Medienbrüche im Prüfprozess
    • Schnellere und nachvollziehbare Qualitätsprüfung

Mendix Workstation

Technology that adapts to your processes

The solution is based on the Mendix Workstation and enables direct communication between the application and local devices on the shop floor. Measuring instruments, scanners, scales, printers and other peripheral devices are connected in real time and managed centrally via the Workstation Client. The data collected is immediately available within the application and can be seamlessly integrated into existing systems such as SAP, Teamcenter or QM solutions.

Supported devices:

• Digital callipers, dial gauges and micrometres
• Industrial scales and torque tools
• Barcode scanners and smart card readers
• Label printers and signal lights
• Other devices via USB, Bluetooth, TCP/IP or serial interfaces
