Frantic Overtime to 'Fabricate' Reports for Annual Audits

Facing annual audits from OEMs like VW, GM, or Tesla requires 12-month CPK/PPK trends. Engineers must export a year's data, split by month in Excel, calculate individually, and plot charts. 100 inspection items = 100 nightmares.

Multi-Cavity/Multi-Machine Consistency is Hard to Control

Injection molding with 16 cavities per mold, or 10 CNCs machining the same part. Some cavities are oversize, some machines lack capability. Result: Mixed-batch Cpk is extremely low, and the root cause is hidden.

MSA Analysis Becomes a Mere Formality

Still using 'fake data' in Excel for GR&R reports? If the measurement system itself is unreliable, all SPC control charts are waste paper.

NEXSPC Core Scenarios & Solutions

Rigorous, Compliant, Efficient: Turn the IATF 16949 'chain of evidence' into daily automated output, not last-minute firefighting before an audit.

History Trend Analysis Engine · Long-term Stability

Goodbye to manual Excel splitting; let data be automatically 'sliced'. Meeting OEM audit requirements for long-term process stability, NEXSPC features a powerful built-in Time-Series Slicing Engine.

  • Auto Slicing:Simply select 'Analysis Cycle: Monthly/Quarterly', and the system automatically grabs massive annual data and slices it by time windows.
  • All-Factor Calculation:One-click generation of trend tables containing PPK, CPK, Ca (Accuracy), Mean Drift, and Outlier counts.
Value: Annual review data that used to take the Quality Team a week to organize, now just a click to 'Generate Report'.
Multi-Machine / Multi-Cavity Consistency 'X-Ray' Vision

Machine / Cavity Overlay · ANOVA

Overlay 16 cavities on one chart; see the weakest link instantly. Auto parts involve high-volume, multi-channel production. NEXSPC rejects 'lumped' analysis, offering advanced Group Overlay Analysis technology.

  • Side-by-Side Comparison:Compare data from different machines, cavities, or suppliers on a single SPC dashboard.
  • Quantified Differences:Auto-calculates Mean and StdDev differences. Uses ANOVA to explain 'Where does the variation come from?'.
  • Actionable Conclusions:Tells you the priority: 'Fix Cavity #4, and yield might improve by 2%'.
Value: Pinpoint sources of variation, avoid total rework, and significantly reduce the cost of quality.
MSA

AIAG-Compliant MSA (Measurement Systems Analysis)

Measurement First

If the foundation is weak, the building shakes. Validate the measurement system before process control. NEXSPC fully follows the latest AIAG MSA manual, integrating GR&R, Attribute Agreement, Linearity, and Bias analysis directly into the system.

  • Variable Data:Supports GR&R Crossed (Non-destructive) and Nested (Destructive testing) methods.
  • Attribute Data:Supports Attribute Agreement Analysis (Kappa Value) to standardize visual inspections.
  • Gage Performance:Supports Gage Linearity and Bias analysis, ensuring both stability and accuracy.
Value: No need for expensive Minitab licenses. Complete gage acceptance directly in the system. Make every measurement data point defensible.

Part History

For safety-critical parts like brake discs and airbags, NEXSPC builds a complete quality traceability chain: turning every part's Serial Number (SN) into the index key for its 'Electronic Record'.

  • Electronic Resume:The SN binds all process inspection data, machine parameters, operator info, and gage IDs.
  • Audit-Friendly:The chain of evidence is automatically archived. Available on-demand during audits. Answer with confidence.
Value: Transform 'traceability' from reactive firefighting into a routine capability. Significantly reduce recall and containment risks.

Customer Value Comparison (Before & After)

Using the same criteria, make the 'efficiency gap' undeniable on screen.

Dimension Traditional Excel / Standalone Software NEXSPC Automotive Edition
PPAP Report Creation Export Data → Clean → Calculate Monthly → Paste to Word (Takes 3 Days+) 3 3 Minutes: Select Item → Select Cycle → Export Excel
Multi-Cavity Analysis Hard to distinguish; only see mixed overall distribution, masking local issues. One-click 16-cavity Box Plot/Control Chart overlay. Pinpoint 'Bad Cavity/Machine'.
Data Integrity Easy to falsify; zero traceability. Direct device transfer; 100% authentic; includes timestamps and SN.
Audit Response Passive searching, fear of being 'stumped' by questions. Proactively show SPC reports. Demonstrate professional management.
