Quality control solution for comprehensive QC management

Quality inspections catch defects three weeks too late. CMM data sits in spreadsheets whilst production runs defective parts. Manual ballooning consumes hours of engineering time that should prevent problems, not document them.

Ideagen Quality Management transforms reactive detection into predictive prevention through contextual AI that automates shop floor inspections and populates AS9102 forms in minutes—exactly how Tecomet cut their production part approval process by 80%.

Overview

Comprehensive quality control solution management

Manufacturing quality control demands precision that manual processes cannot deliver consistently. Today's quality professionals need QC management systems that automatically extract part drawing data, import CMM measurements and generate AS9102 FAI forms without human error. Manual ballooning wastes skilled engineering time whilst optical character recognition eliminates tedium of transcribing GD&T specifications. 

Traditional quality control processes struggle with drawing revision control where engineers work from outdated specifications whilst production uses current versions. Quality professionals recognise that effective manufacturing quality control requires automated drawing management, real-time CMM integration, systematic non-conformance workflows and predictive analytics that identify patterns before they become systemic. Most critically, it demands mobile functionality that brings quality control to the shop floor instead of forcing operators to desktop workstations.
