The Quality Control
software extension for CLIOwin is a powerful suite for executing state of
the art production line testing.
CLIOwin QC implements all the measurement techniques found in the CLIOwin
standard software adding a versatile script processor that handles the test
sequence most appropriate for your needs.
CLIOwin QC is able to test the production of loudspeakers, drivers, microphones,
amplifiers and of any other electroacoustic device.
CLIOwin QC can interact with external hardware or production line controller,
with PC peripherals, with network or with custom written software to realize
a fully automatic line test.
FEATURES OF CLIOWIN QC
CLIOwin QC is exceptionally powerful as it relies on the power of CLIOwin.
Some of the measurements possible:
- Frequency response with MLS
- Impedance with MLS
- Polarity
- Frequency response with Sinusoidal Sweep
- Impedance with Sinusoidal Sweep
- Single harmonic response with Sinusoidal Sweep
- Narrowband FFT analysis with definable stimulus
- T&S parameters
- Sensitivity
- Frequency
- THD
- IMD
- Noise
The application
of single measurements or the combination of more give the best answer to
complex topics like rub&buzz testing.
Some of the QC management features are better explained starting from the
various subjects taking part to this complex operation and from their points
of view:
- The operator working on the line
- The quality control engineer responsible for production line operation
- The company and its managers controlling the overall process.
THE OPERATOR'S POINT OF VIEW
A quality control test can be controlled by simple Go-NoGo masks letting even the least experienced operator work without problems and with a zero time learning curve.
A more complex operation foresees the continuous display of the measurements executed until the reaching of the final result.
A third possibility is to view and interact with the test sequence during its execution.
Complete
test information and report are always presented to the user.
THE ENGINEER'S POINT OF VIEW
As the QC is integrated inside the CLIOwin software no new user interface has to be learned by the engineer who has experienced CLIOwin inside her or his research laboratory. A quality control test relies on real measurements saved on disk and on a simple text script.
Defining a QC script is easy as it takes writing only few descriptive lines
of text, no programming languages or complex instructions are involved.
It is possible to capture the active measurement; the check masks can also
be input in a visual manner drawing limits over the measurement; debugging
is helped by an internal corrector.
THE COMPANY'S POINT OF VIEW
CLIOwin for quality control executes line testing in a fast, accurate and reliable manner. Its flexibility permits easy handling of trade-offs between parameters like speed and accuracy matching always company's needs. The autosaving and exporting capabilities together the complete result reporting give instant access to the production parameters and statistics even during its operation. The production batch is fully managed while preserving serial number coherence.
