Support for AS9102
First Article Inspection Reporting

Provide a clear and concise approach for completing First Article Inspection Reports before the manufacturing process. Includes forms 1, 2, and 3. Export to Excel or PDF.

• Save layout for all active runs at the same time, 
• Collection Scheduler is included with Real-Time.
• AS9102 First Article Inspection Reports (FAIR) are now available as a form to populate and print. 
• Acceptance Sampling support for C=0 or Z1.4 guidelines. Displays OC Curves for risk evaluation. Export to Excel or PDF.
• A single point of data can be removed from the middle of a run. 

Missed Inspection View and Metrics

View metrics based on run, routine, station, and time for missed data collections using Process Manager.

• Box Plot analysis capabilities added.
• Acceptance sampling for C=0 and Z1.4 standards on historical data.
• Support for AS9102 First Article Inspection Reports – viewing, printing, editing, export to Excel or PDF.

Data Transformation

Transform data from measurement sources before storing and displaying results. This function can convert units and shift decimal points to make data collection even easier.

Designed to collect data at the point of manufacture, operators can be alerted of trends, cycles, and nonconformance as soon as they occur. A customizable user interface allows the user nearly infinite ways to view information specific to that process. MeasurLink Real-Time has the ability to connect and acquire data from virtually any measuring device. It supports the full range of metrology technology, including calipers, micrometers, indicators, CMMs, vision systems and more

Acceptance Sampling

MeasurLink's Acceptance Sampling feature calculates the correct number of samples to take and will reject or accept lots based on C=0 or ANSI Z1.4 standards. Display OC Curves for risk evaluation. Export to Excel or PDF.

• In Routine Library, runs can now be created at other stations than the user is currently on, eliminating the requirement for a setup person to be at the station to create a run.
   
• A new property for Criticality has been added to the revision level of a characteristic in the Part Library. This will support functionality for processes such as acceptance sampling.
   

• In Station Library, a DAQ source can be enhanced to apply an equation to the data to “transform” it into a more usable data within MeasurLink. 

• Usability improvements to the libraries to make options easier to find and use.

Dynamic Run Selection

This supports functionality for enhanced reporting. It gives users the ability to report on multiple runs across separate stations, parts, and routines based on filter criteria. Output all runs matching filter criteria to a single report, or an individual report for each run.

MQTT JSON Device

Supports machine-to-machine communication protocol for industrial automation. Similar to RS-232 devices, the measurement, traceability and serial number can be collected.

• The MeasurLink user experience has undergone an update in visual presentation. Icons, window themes, and workspaces have been modified to provide a flatter feel, utilizing fewer but more consistent colors throughout. Additionally, chart backgrounds, plot points, and histogram bins have changed the default color scheme to remove the previous gradient.

• Active Input device commands can now be sent to MeasurLink from HID devices, such as using a barcode scanner to open an inspection routine.
   
• A new report page for displaying the electronic signature history of a run has been added to the Characteristic Independent section of MeasurLink reports.

• When the database version upgrade dialog displays, primarily after a service pack has been applied, the user now has the option to change the connection so as to avoid updating a database that should not be updated (for example, to allow switching from production to a test or QA database).

• The concept of run type has been added with values of SPC run (this is the run structure of previous versions of MeasurLink), First Article Inspection Results, Acceptance Sample, or a mixed type (combination of the first three). Specific icons have been added for each run type, and appropriate trees can be grouped by this new type as well.

• More robust filtering of trees in Report Scheduler, Process Analyzer, and Process Manager has been included. A more advanced user experience provides the ability to achieve more complex and granular tree displays, making it easier to identify and work with only the desired data. Filter criteria includes multiple logical operands, more filtering types, and grouping controls to allow for advanced order of operations. Filters can be inclusive or exclusive.

• XBar/R and XBar/S charts can be converted to “rainbow” charts by including the sigma zone lines and optionally adding a color scheme within the zones.
   
• When previewing or printing a chart in Probability View or Classic View that contains filtered data, the filter criteria is displayed at the top of the chart.
