Architecture
Qualisys®SpectroQuest is capable of acquiring,
classifying, analyzing and distributing information about chemical or spectral
analyses of different materials (e.g. steel) to carry out quality control and
assurance of your products. Qualisys®SpectroQuest is composed of a series of modules
designed in a flexible and extensible architecture, which can be adapted to
satisfy your specific requirements.
Qualisys®SpectroCapture is the module that works in connection
with your chemical or spectral analysis device, obtaining the composition of
each analyzed sample. Utilizing classification rules that you can configure,
SpectroCapture determines how to classify each sample, and then stores it in a
central database.
Qualisys®SpectroOnLine is the module that enables real-time
monitoring of the analysis information in a distributed way, that is to say,
throughout the whole plant. As soon as a sample enters the central database,
every SpectroOnLine workstation receives and displays the information,
detailing composition, classification and further data from each sample. In
this way your staff will immediately know the characteristics and quality of
each sample in order to act and correct quickly the production process, which means
important savings, and higher quality.
From any workstation with the SpectroTrend module
installed, you will be able to obtain historical and statistical information
reports about the analyzed samples and this means you will be able to control
and improve both quality and production processes. Using this analysis tool,
you will obtain information regarding the distribution of the classifications
(amount of samples of each different type), production quality (contrasting the
expected classification with the actual classification) according to the sample
composition (average, minimum, maximum and standard deviation for each
component). Also, evolution graphs of samples’ composition and several other
reports. This module can be extended to satisfy your most specific information
requirements.
Lastly, the OPC Server module exports the sample
composition and classification data using theOPC industrial communication standard
to allow other industrial and management applications to access the data from
your analyzers and the sample classification data.
Features
Using Qualisys®SpectroQuest, you will be able to:
·
Monitor in real-time samples’ composition and
classification, anywhere within the plant, precociously detecting and
correcting quality problems and thus avoiding massive losses.
·
Obtain historical and statistical reports
that will help understand not only the evolution and current situation of the
production but also the composition of the materials and to what extent are you
complying with your production objectives (expected quality against real
quality). This enables you to make cleverer decisions to augment quality
resulting in client satisfaction and assuring your competitiveness in the
marketplace.
·
Automatically classify samples using rules
configured by yourself and tailored to your industrial plant.
·
Acquire data from any analyzer, especially
from spectrometers, and make it available for other applications
via widely-known standard protocols.
·
Maintain a historical register of the
characteristics and quality of your production that can be queried at any time.
Market te sted
SpectroQuest has been used
for more than five years in steel production industries that use ARL
spectrometers . The incorporation
of this system has resulted not only in a considerable augment of the steel
quality, but also in the prevention of major losses due to low-quality steel,
and also client satisfaction. The data analysis tools enabled them to analyze the
production history and make more precise planning and estimation for future
periods. Our team has highly qualified engineers, especially experienced in the
steelworks industry.
