Why the demand for short production runs? Your customer’s application of Lean principles causes them to request smaller batch sizes which results in the need for shorter production runs and short run SPC.
In the quality management domain, AI undoubtedly has potential in different areas. It would be easy to think that AI could be a threat to less modern tools like statistical process control or render SPC obsolete.
Advancements in technology are making SPC software more user-friendly and accessible. New features such as machine learning and predictive analytics are being added to SPC software, making it even more indispensable to an organization.
Real-time process management using SPC software has never been more cost-effective, providing substantial benefits by consistently meeting customer requirements with minimal labor expense.
