- New cloud-based metrology reporting software consolidates disparate reporting tools to deliver metrology trend analysis for a broad spectrum of Hexagon and third-party metrology systems in one dashboard
- Users can easily track real-time part quality trends during production on any device at any time, receive automated alerts and troubleshoot issues with interactive visualization and CAD-to-metrology comparison reports
- Built-in collaboration ensures that manufacturers can solve quality issues faster and share up-to-date information with colleagues and supply chain stakeholders through a simple web interface
A new cloud-based metrology trend reporting tool has been released by Hexagon’s production Intelligence division for qualified experts and production teams. The accessible and intelligent software automatically collects and analyses real-time data, allowing manufacturing teams to swiftly assess and report on important quality control indicators and address problems sooner. It is designed to assist experienced users to be more productive.
User irritation, inefficiency, and slower workflows have historically been caused by out-of-date user interfaces and processes built on analytics. Companies also need to provide the most recent information both internally and with their supply chain partners. A Nexus App called Metrology Reporting makes use of Hexagon’s strong platform capabilities to assist businesses in unlocking untapped metrology data from their equipment, identifying issues with tolerance, and tracking issues with a part back to a batch ID to gain a deeper understanding of the problem and provide a rapid solution. Through a simple user interface, it makes vital indications accessible to all users and offers up-to-date information on any device at any time.
Now, users of any expertise level can access and use metrology data on the cloud. This makes it possible to monitor a part’s measurement patterns in relation to established tolerances and quality controls, identify the root cause of failures, and produce metrology reports more quickly for ongoing development. Through Nexus, users may quickly and easily streamline compliance reporting and reviews with clients or suppliers by inviting outside parties to receive a live, read-only report.
The software’s modern, straightforward user interface complements more seasoned quality professionals’ favorite desktop tools by streamlining reporting and saving time. The App will support third-party sources and connect to well-known metrology programs like Hexagon’s PC-DMIS and QUINDOS at launch. This allows for immediate cloud data management and reporting without the need for new on-premise IT. Users can monitor dimensional quality metrics across batches of parts and dig down into a specific item from mobile devices when they are away from the factory floor by seeing metrology data from PC-DMIS and QUINDOS.
Additionally, the assurance that team members can get automated alerts when production veers outside of tolerance benefits manufacturing teams. Users can obtain metrology data whenever and wherever they need it by logging in through any browser. Quick access to the needed information is made possible by filters and reporting features.
The Nexus Digital Reality Platform from Hexagon is made to remove barriers to creativity and promote cross-disciplinary teamwork throughout the product lifecycle. Nexus will assist manufacturers in gaining new data insights, dismantling organizational silos, and working together to address issues more quickly and effectively. Customers will have access to a growing selection of Nexus-connected Apps and Solutions to enable closed-loop quality and record missing data ascribed to the digital thread by connecting metrology data to Nexus.
At launch, all data flow goes through the PC-DMIS and QUINDOS software from Hexagon. Additionally open to other vendors, it will support other Hexagon Manufacturing intelligence software, such as VGSTUDIO Max and Inspire.
