Industry Pain Points

"That greasy paper report in the workshop... can you really trust the data on it?"

Data Entry in Harsh Environments

Machine shops are full of oil and metal chips. Operators wearing gloves can't type on keyboards. The result: 'Write on paper first, type later,' losing all real-time value.

Data 'Embellishment' & Falsification

To meet quotas or avoid fines, operators may fabricate data (writing a 'pass' value when it's out of tolerance). This 'fake data' makes SPC a self-deceiving game.

Batch Scrap Caused by Tool Wear

Tools wear slowly, causing gradual dimensional drift. If this tiny trend isn't detected early, dozens of parts are scrapped before tolerance is exceeded.

NEXSPC Core Scenarios & Solutions

Transform 'hard collection, rampant falsification, slow trends, and delayed response' into an automated, executable shop floor quality system.

Digital Gage 'One-Click Input' — Zero Barrier, Zero Error

Bluetooth / USB / Serial Data Cable

Accurate data entry even with oily gloves. NEXSPC offers an extremely simple acquisition solution for high-frequency measurement needs on the machine shop floor.

Wide Compatibility：Supports major brands like Mitutoyo, Mahr, Guanglu, etc. Calipers, Micrometers, Indicators, Height Gages.
Fool-proof Operation：Operators measure as usual, then press the DATA button on the tool (or use a Foot Switch).
Instant Transmission：Values fill the system input box directly via Bluetooth/Cable and Auto-Enter to save.

Value: Boost entry efficiency by 300%. Source data is non-tamperable, ensuring integrity.

CNC Key Parameter Real-time Monitoring

Real-time Monitoring

Monitor not just 'dimensions', but 'machine status'. Dimensional variation often stems from machine fluctuations. NEXSPC breaks the CNC 'black box' using industrial protocols.

OPC UA Direct Connection：Reads internal parameters from Fanuc, Siemens, Mitsubishi, and other CNC systems.
Monitoring Dimensions：Key process parameters like Spindle Load, Spindle Temp, and Feed Rate.
Correlation Analysis：Correlate 'Spindle Thermal Expansion' with 'Workpiece Dimensions' to find optimal warm-up compensation rules.

Value: Alert immediately when machine status fluctuates, preventing dimensional errors BEFORE they occur.

Tool Life Prediction & Trend Warning

Predictive Maintenance

Tell operators 'Time to change tool' BEFORE scrap is produced. Managing tool life with SPC statistical laws is more scientific than simply changing based on part count.

Trend Anomaly Detection：Focus on rules like '6 points in a row increasing/decreasing' to identify unidirectional dimension drift (tool wear signal).
Warning Notification：Instant push to Team Leader: 'Tool T05 shows wear trend. Recommend replacement within 20 parts.'

Value: Upgrade from 'Fixed Interval/Run-to-Failure' to Predictive Replacement. Extract maximum value from every tool.

Shop Floor 'Traffic Light' Andon Board

Visual Management

Don't dig through reports; just look up. High-contrast dashboard designed for large shop floor screens, helping line supervisors spot anomalies instantly.

Machine Mapping：Displays shop floor CNCs as a 'Grid'. Clear visibility even with 50+ machines.
Status Visualization：🟢 CPK > 1.33 (OK); 🟡 Warning (Attention); 🔴 OOC or CPK < 1.0 (Stop Now).

Value: From digging tables to 'One Glance'. Faster response, clearer accountability.

Customer Value Comparison (Before & After)

Upgrade from 'paper processes' to 'direct source transfer' to turn your quality system from a formality into actual results.

Dimension	Traditional Paper / Excel	NEXSPC Precision Edition
Data Entry	Handwritten notes with oily hands; illegible scribbles; backfilled after shift.	Press the caliper DATA button; auto-upload to cloud; real-time and clean.
Data Integrity	Easy to falsify; zero traceability.	Direct device transfer; 100% authentic; includes timestamps and SN.
Tool Management	Experience-based or fixed life cycle; leads to waste or tool breakage.	Predict life via dimensional drift trends; squeeze maximum value.
Response Time	Investigation only after scrap is detected.	Instant alarm for spindle load fluctuations; prevent before it happens.
