Analyzing the performance of factories and machines is one step in Industry 4.0. Analyzing the quality of the manufactured products is another step.

Digital Product Twin

New visualization concept
for production data to analyze
product quality and machine
process stability

Until now, product quality and process stability have had to be analyzed manually using experience and intuition. With nebumind’s digital product twins, factories can perform such analyses systematically and online for any machine, manufacturing process or production industry. nebumind’s concept brings transparency to your product quality and process stability.

NebuMind connectivity

Generic connectivity concept to
connect machines and sensors,
match data streams and transfer
them to different destinations

High data quality is indispensable for effective analyses. nebumind supports your production in connecting data sources, extracting data and merging them into a common format. Data can thus be structured, filtered and pre-processed according to your needs and sent to any destination, ranging from company databases to on-premise storage systems, network-data storage systems, message queues and simple files.

NEBUMIND SOFTWARE

Analytics software to visualize
digital product twins and enable
a wide range of quality and
process analyses

nebumind’s software stores all machine and sensor data generated during the production of a part and visualizes the data as digital product twins. It enables factories to retrieve any production information, both online and offline, and to trace back quality & process issues to their origin. It is designed for factory engineers and operators who do not have computer programming skills.

NEBUMIND ANALYTICS TOOLS

Marketplace of analytics tools
to support factories with their
process and quality analyses,
offline and online

nebumind’s analytics tools enable factories to perform a wide range of analyses, whenever and wherever needed. The portfolio ranges from generic tools which can be used for various manufacturing processes to customized tools for specific process steps and machines.

NEBUMIND ANALYTICS TOOLS

nMaster: Building reference models

In high-tech industries in particular, the tolerance ranges for manufactured parts are extremely narrow, resulting in high quantities of rejects that might actually have been of sufficient quality. nMaster helps you to generate reference models based on good quality parts in order to make tolerance ranges more flexible and reduce the number of unnecessary rejects.

NEBUMIND ANALYTICS TOOLS

nDetect: Early detection of defects in parts

Quality defects are often discovered only at the very end of the production chain, incurring unnecessary costs by further processing defective parts. nDetect detects anomalies during the manufacturing process and informs you if something is going wrong or even stops production.

NEBUMIND ANALYTICS TOOLS

nTrace: Tracing of defect root causes in individual parts

To reduce the amount of production scrap, it is essential to trace back quality defects to their origin. nTrace gives you insights into how process parameters and machine settings influence each other and which correlations exist between defective areas within manufactured parts and the associated process parameters.

NEBUMIND ANALYTICS TOOLS

nCompare: Quality comparison of multiple, identical parts

Process stability is key to ensuring all manufactured parts of the same type have the same high quality. nCompare helps you to compare the characteristics of good and poor quality parts in order to better understand and control quality drivers within a particular manufacturing process.

NEBUMIND ANALYTICS TOOLS

nTune: Automatic optimization of machine programs

To ensure that a machine program runs according to requirements a large number of iterations and manual feedback loops are needed between the factory floor and the machine programming team. nTune automates this fine-tuning process by recognizing and verifying operator adaptations and automatically generating a machine program update.

NEBUMIND ANALYTICS TOOLS

nExport: Flexible export of production data

Company IT systems have different interfaces and different import formats. To make the production data available to any other company software, nExport helps you to export data from the nebumind software and transform them into customized formats such as point clouds, csv, json and xml, or stream them via zmq, MQTT, OPCUA.
