Closed-loop quality for industrial machinery manufacturers

Industrial machinery manufacturers are challenged to reduce product and operating costs, while improving quality to distinguish their products and gain a competitive advantage. Manufacturers that maintain a traditional mindset with a siloed approach to quality will experience launch delays, rework costs, and higher warranties. To overcome such challenges, manufacturers can leverage integrated closed-loop quality (CLQ) solutions.

Closed-loop quality for boosting collaboration

Industrial machinery manufacturers are faced with increasing market demands calling for improved safety, flexibility, agility and efficiency in production operations while maintaining and providing the highest possible quality for ongoing operations. A closed-loop quality solution enables collaboration among different departments on key quality processes.

An integrated PLM and CLQ solution

Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and Quality Management System (QMS) synergy is a key enabler to closed-loop quality. Our quality solution for the industrial machinery manufacturers allows bi-directional feedback between product development, quality, manufacturing, supply chains and customer service.

The closed-loop manufacturing process supports consistency and reliability in production by establishing a digital twin of the full manufacturing process. Our integrated quality offering helps companies manage their entire product life cycle, from planning and production to lessons learned and new planning iterations. Leveraging several elements of our portfolio, companies gain a closed-loop approach from design to manufacturing on shop floor, providing an ideal environment for meeting international guidelines and quality standards.

This digital solution provides continuous access to data across the value chain. And with this digital backbone in place, the change management process distributes changes to relevant stakeholders for the proper synchronization and implementation at the right time.

Continuous improvement with the physical and digital twin

The digital twin provides flexibility and increased efficiency by allowing your manufacturing process to quickly evaluate alternatives and adapt to variations. Our closed-loop quality solution helps minimize risks in manufacturing and the supply chain by increasing execution transparency. The tight integration between data collected from the physical twin and digital twin enables continuous improvement with direct feedback to drive product, process and production changes. Production speed and product quality are improved by digitally executing and tracking each production operation to achieve best-in-class performance.
