SILQual
| Make your
quality controls easier | In order
to give their customers a high level of quality, glass manufacturers must carry
out numerous tests on items they produce. SILQual makes this tedious
job simple. In a user-friendly way, the glass manufacturer can create his
own Quality database, record and restore test results and communicate with manufacturing
lines.

2009 version SILQual |
| SIL
LAB |
SIL Lab was created by Vertech'
for glassmakers in 2004. Many evolutions have been added
to this application recently, such as the analysis of
raw materials. Thanks to this application, the use of
paper in the laboratories has been considerably reduced,
added to the following benefits for our Clients :
securisation of data
total traceability of chemical
analyses, thanks to recording in database
immediate information inside the
group, thanks to data centralization |
| SPC
restitution for Controllers |
| SILQual already proposed SPC
restitution for the Quality Manager. 2009 version allows
SPC restitution SPC for Controllers too, for measurements
and set outs. |
| New
functionalities |
New display of 5mn counters
Possibility to add an instruction
for the controllers, in the description of the control
step
New daily report showing hour
per hour the results of set outs |
| New

Communication with KERN Scale
Communication with Prolaser with
new display

application, the use of paper in the laboratories has been considerably
reduced, added to the following benefits for our Clients: - securisation
of data - total traceability of chemical analyses, thanks to recording
in database - immediate information inside the group, thanks to
data centralization To trace composition and raw materials, SIL
Lab is the solution to manage your chemical analyses. This application
is used by central chemical laboratory of glassmakers, as well as
by the glass laboratory of every plant.
|
for the central lab
Thanks to SIL Lab, you can :
- record the analyses made on composition and raw materials
- watch the results on curves or grids - follow the
analyses performed in real time
- ensure traceability of composition steps (follow of
changes and costs)
- edit certificates of analyses, automatically combined
with biometric signature |
for the plant lab
Thanks to SIL Lab, you can :
- see the analyses made in the central lab of the group
- take out daily controls on articles (density, refining,
homogeneity, hydrolytic resistance). |

| SPC
restitution for Controllers |
SILQual already proposed SPC restitution
for the Quality Manager. 2009 version allows SPC restitution SPC
for Controllers too, for measurements and set outs.
|
| SPC
Reports |
The SIL offers the possibility to edit a new "SPC report"
which shows the DPM and the sigma level for each control.
|

|
|
| Consult
the result of yours controls more quickly |
You can go to the next
set out in one click, without going off the screen
The step is clearly identified
Easier recording
A calendar helps you to choose the required date
When you have SILQual only, you can change the number of sections
of IS machine from SILQual manager

| More detailed export
|
Now you can export all the results of a control cavity
per cavity
You can visualize lots
|
|
Modus operandi
The operator opens the production he sampled. He
records mould numbers and the date of sampling.
Then, he follows instructions for proceeding to
controls.
|
|
Data entry screens
The data entry screen is adapted to each type of
control equipment.
It informs the operator on the test and gives him
more flexibility to manage items to be controlled.
|
|
Values out of tolerances
When a value is out of tolerances, the operator
can edit different copies of the list of moulds
and defects controlled.
|
|

|
|
| Traceability
| Powerful tools allow your personnal data processing
: internal reports, customized certificates of conformity for your customers...
You can print quality reports for internal use, certificates of conformity
and listings according to your needs You may also use the utility to customize
them for your customers..
Certificate of conformity are more flexible and more precise You have
the possibility to edit a certificate for another plant of the group (the address
can be changed on SILQual manager) You can precise the reference of finished product
and lot
| |  |
|
Value outside tolerance You can consult at any time the list
of values outside tolerance. You can neutralize them and associate a comment with
them (resorting, ejected mould...) |
Interpret results With explicit control charts, giving
the various limits, you can immediately interpret results. SILQual is an efficient
tool to place your productions under control. | |

| Data
managing and storing |
You key in quality data for your plant into
SILQual database.
A powerful server and database ensure your data integrity.
You define your plant configuration, your operators, your control
devices...
in fact all your control means.


Deletion of production informations
stored in the database
Manufacturers must contractually keep the measurements
of a production for several years, depending on the article
and on the client. As time goes by, data accumulate and
overload the database leading to updates slowdown.
SILQual uses the notion of the article lifespam to determine
if a production for this article may be deleted. Deleting
a production means remove data stored (totally or partially)
during production, quality controls (SILQual) and possibly
during pallet audit. However, the production sheet is
still available, in particular to consult the production
report.
|
|
Centralized Database
New SILQual functionality
SIL database can now be shared between several plants.
Thus, the Control range of each article is exactly the
same for the different plants.
Each article is assigned to a Managing Plant which is
the only one to be responsible for modifying its parameters.
However, thanks to data reorganization, each plant can
adapt its working weight for each production line |
Production orders
Declare production orders for each item being manufactured.
These will enable operators to start or stop controls. |
Ranges
You define a control range for each item. This will provide
operators with all the necessary information to carry
out strict controls: frequency, control means, acceptable
limits... |
 |
|

|
|
Biometric Recognition |
The Biometric Recognition (by fingerprints) is now available
under SILQual : It will be used for the biometric
authentification of quality documents sent to clients.
It enables to positively identify operators who realize quality controls or samplings.
This function was developped to answer the requirements of the Drug &
Food Administration (USA).

|
| SILQual
: gaging restitution |
Thanks to SILQual, you can easily store gaging measurements made by API, AMD or
Profiler from MSC.
Vertech' has developed communication with these machines
for storage and restitution of gaging at different heights of the bottle.
SILQual
collects measurements and store them in the database as other measurements made
in the laboratory (weight, capacity …).
