This short movie shows how Quality Analytics Server (QAS) can help organisations
who are implementing Statistical Process Control systems.
NWA Quality Analytics Server (QAS) is a Client/Server application that
consists of:
- Analytics Server application that manages database connections,
SPC calculations and chart preparation, and distributes status and
graphics results in XML format
- Supervisory Clients that subscribe to
the Analytics Server's XML output and display real-time status indicators
and SPC charts for selected process and quality parameters
- NWA Quality Analyst for creating Data
Sets and managing connections to external data sources
- Utilities for configuring, managing, and troubleshooting
the Analytics Server and Clients
“Our operators really like the Quality Analytics ‘dashboard.’ It
automatically updates and tells them when to pay attention. QAS lets
them focus on just the one point that demands attention, and then drill
down to reports and charts as necessary.”
