With the Quality report you are able to analyze the rejections per
batch, set against the the total production for the selected period.
The input for this report is generated by first establishing the
relationship between the machine sensors and the relevant batch number
sensor. This is the same as used for the Batch reports, and you can read how to configure Batch sensors is the article:
How to configure batches and recipes.
To set up the report, you select a batch sensor (1), then select multiple quality/rejection sensors (2), and the total production count sensor (3).
When you've selected the right input sensors, press the 'plot' button to generate the report. There are several different things to take note of:
- (4) The chips 'Numbers' and 'Percentages', allow you to switch how the data is displayed.
- (5) The drop downs allow specific batches and recipes for the designated period of time to be selected.
- (6) An overview of the totals for the selected period.
- (7) The Doughnut chart drills down into either the number of rejected items, or the percentage of rejected items, depending on the selection; and displays the rejections per quality sensor.
- (8) The stacked bar graph is similar to that used on the Batch report, and provides insight into which batches have the most and least rejections, and what these are.
- (9) At the bottom of the page is a table showing quality defects per batch and recipe. The data also responds to the numbers or percentages selection. This data table can also be downloaded as a
Microsoft Excel file.
