MES: Achieving Real Quality with Virtual Products
|
| Product quality is one of the most important issues
that face manufacturing firms. A company’s
reputation for quality products is difficult to
establish but easily tarnished.
While the design of a product is critical to product
quality, the best design, if not manufactured to the
requisite specifications and process, will result in a
product that lacks quality. In addition, it is not
enough for today’s manufacturing firms to produce
most of the products correctly. Even a small
number of defective products will result in a poor
quality perception. In addition, the issue of quality
has a halo effect for companies. The perception of
poor quality for one product can easily carry over
to all product lines. |

Calibration Primer - an OMEGA® White Paper
|
| Company: | Omega Engineering, Inc. |
| The most sophisticated industrial equipment will not be very useful unless it is calibrated. Through calibration, adjustments made to a piece of equipment ensure that it performs as expected—that it can be relied on to deliver predictable, accurate results that meet quality standards. This white paper from Omega Engineering explains what calibration is, why it is important, and how it works. NIST traceability is defined and discussed, and there is a step-by-step description of a basic calibration. This paper also discusses in-house vs. laboratory calibration, and it describes major types of calibration devices.
