Business use case
Optimizing Quality Control and Data Logging at a Water Technology Company
Case description
A water technology company chose Inniti to optimize its quality control (QC) procedures and data logging. To improve efficiency, it used Inniti to replicate its manual QC processes.
Before Inniti, quality control was a bottleneck in the pilot production of its membrane modules. Each manual QC procedure required a scientist to attend to the experiment five times per hour.
These time-consuming processes kept scientists from spending enough time on research and development.
The manual QC process meant:
- A scientist attending each experiment five times per hour
- QC as a bottleneck in pilot production
- Less time for research and development
- Data from different equipment combined by hand in Excel sheets
Defined state
QC was a bottleneck in pilot production, and each procedure needed a scientist to attend to it five times per hour.
Desired state
Replicate the manual QC processes automatically, and make all sensor data accessible and shareable in one place.
Results
300% increase in QC testing capacity
More testing without more manual work
70% decrease in experiment time
by automating processes
Data logging and accuracy improved
no more combining Excel sheets from different equipment
All sensor data in one place
accessible and shareable on Inniti's platform
More time for R&D
less manual documentation, more time acting on results
