Browser-based Defect Tracking
Defect tracking in manufacturing provides a way for manufacturers to monitor and then make improvements to the number and nature of quality defects produced during the manufacture of their product. Defect tracking is part of a quality assurance or quality management system.
Highly configurable systems are outpacing canned systems and providing a path for innovation. Advancements in browser based technology are enabling agile deployment strategies.
Manufacturing software helps manufacturers improve production performance by providing visable control and reporting across the enterprise.
There are now browser based defect tracking applications available which are faster and easier to configure as well as being considerably less costly than traditional legacy based software systems. These browser based systems can readily be integrated with shop floor devices for data collection, such as PLCs and the like or they can be used with manual entries made by employees.
These defect tracking interfaces allow users to mine data in an extremely precise manner. Reporting interfaces should be easily configured to quickly give the specific data desired. Vendors offering the browser-based defect tracking applications include Tuppas Software, MASSGroup and ShopFloorReporting.com.
