MBrain’s Control Plans feature helps manufacturers define, manage, and monitor critical process parameters to ensure product quality and consistency. Just as many other features in MBrain, control plans can be interconnected with various other tools and aspects of MBrain. These digital control plans verifies by design that the right quality metrics are used in your manufacturing quality assurances processes.
MBrain lets you forget outdated paper based control plans which tend to be forgotten and followed sporadically!
Key Capabilities:
Comprehensive Control Plan Management – Define and document key process parameters, inspection criteria, and control methods that can be linked to the relevant process steps in your manufacturing process.
Real-Time Monitoring & Alerts – Continuously track process variables and receive instant notifications if a parameter deviates from the set limits.
Integration with SPC & FMEA – Link Control Plans with Statistical Process Control (SPC) and Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) for a data-driven quality approach.
Customizable Templates – Easily create and modify Control Plans using MBrain’s intuitive no-code interface, ensuring flexibility for different production needs.
Automated Data Collection – Connect with IoT sensors, PLCs, and machines to automatically capture and analyze quality-related data in real time.
Process Interlocking – Prevent operators from proceeding with production if a critical parameter is out of specification, ensuring compliance with quality standards.
Traceability & Documentation – Maintain a complete digital history of Control Plan changes, measurements, and corrective actions for audits and compliance.
How It Works in MBrain:
Control Plan Creation – Users define process parameters, tolerances, and inspection criteria using MBrain’s no-code interface.
Process Design – MBrain lets you connect your control plan parameters to your manufacturing processes so that they can be updated centrally, ensuring the latest version of your control plan is being followed.
Live Monitoring – Since your quality assurance processes are part of the integral manufacturing method in MBrain, you ensure quality assurance controls can't be bypassed and that you get live data on your quality assurance metrics.
Alerts & Corrective Actions – If a deviation occurs, MBrain will not allow the affected unit to pass further in the manufacturing process without repair or approval by authorized user with the right competence and credentials.
Continuous Improvement – Control Plans are linked with SPC and FMEA, allowing data-driven optimizations to enhance quality and efficiency.
MBrain’s Control Plans feature ensures proactive quality management, reduced defects, and improved production stability, helping manufacturers meet regulatory and customer quality requirements.
