Solartron Metrology's new software package is built in a way that minimises the time needed for staff training and system integration. It delivers this partly by using guided graphical sequencing in clear and simple colour-coded graphics, and partly by using embedded measurement templates that can be used to configure measurement formulas and match probes.
As a result of these new features, a consistent level of high-quality measurement data collection and storage can be achieved from one gauge operator to another, without the need for extensive training or product knowledge.
- Easily programmable
- Supports manual, semi-automatic and automatic gauges
- Guided graphical sequencing
- Data exporting to popular statistical process control packages
- Highly customisable, with scripting to accommodate custom application needs
At the same time, Orbit Gauge Software 4.0 is compatible with the Microsoft Windows operating system, making the analysis of manufacturing processes straightforward, and with tools and fixtures from third-party hardware manufacturers, allowing users to build and operate a measurement system with a single software package.
OGS4 uses guided graphical sequencing in clear and simple color-coded graphics that minimize training time, startup time and the potential for operator inspection errors. These features also minimize training from one user to the next, ensuring reproducible inspection results from different operators and shifts.
OGS4 uses a Window-compatible computer as a workstation to measure and collect measurement data to analyze the manufacturing process. The OGS4 program also lets users integrate tools and fixtures from third-party hardware manufacturers to build a complete measurement system with one software.
With the aid of embedded measurement templates, the user can configure measurement formulas by selecting the appropriate template and matching the associated probes. This reduces the training and knowledge required to configure the system.
