ORPAON SPC
Statistical process control software: let quality data speak for itself
Target customers
Quality and process engineering departments in discrete manufacturing plants with gauge / inspection data that need statistical process control; companies that already have SPC but still build reports by hand.
Typical symptoms
- Gauge data transcribed by hand, control charts in Excel, out-of-control detection too late
- Scrambling to assemble capability index and GR&R evidence when factory / system audits demand it
- Quality anomalies discovered after the fact, with the source of variation untraceable
Solution path
Gauge data collection → 9 control chart types → Nelson rules → capability indices → GR&R → multivariate monitoring → dashboards and reports.
Core features
- Gauge collection: automatic data capture from gauges via serial / TCP direct connection
- 9 control chart types: X̄R / X̄S / ImR / EWMA / CUSUM / P / NP / C / U
- Nelson out-of-control rules: automatic triggering on trends / shifts / cycles
- Process capability indices: Cp / Cpk / Cpm / Pp / Ppk, with non-normal capability transformations (Box-Cox / Johnson)
- Measurement system analysis: Gage R&R
- Multivariate monitoring: Hotelling T²
- Dashboards and reports: quality data on one screen, report export
Engineering evidence
Deployment evidence already exists; maturity: mature and reusable.
For related practice in food ingredient error-proofing and traceability scenarios, see the food OEE and end-to-end traceability case page.
Expansion path
Single-process pilot → full-shop gauge coverage → linkage with traceability → integration with the MES quality module.
Applicability conditions
- Gauges have communication interfaces, or collection modules can be added
- Quality processes already have defined control points and tolerance specifications
Non-applicability conditions
- Purely manual, workshop-style scenarios with no gauges and no retrofit plans for now
- Requests to replace a plant-wide MES — SPC is a quality module, not the main production execution system
Pilot approach
Pick 1–2 critical processes + 3–5 gauges for a small-scale pilot; pilot scope, timeline and acceptance criteria are confirmed by both parties after investigation.
FAQ
How is this different from Excel control charts?
Automatic collection, rule-based out-of-control detection, capability indices and GR&R reports generated in one click, with an auditable data trail.
Which gauges are supported?
Any gauge with a serial / TCP interface can be connected; for equipment without interfaces, add-on options can be evaluated.
Can it connect to our existing MES?
It can integrate with MES as the quality module; interfaces are confirmed per project.
