Remote diagnostics boosts productivity and cuts costs
High-tech systems are capital intensive, so keeping them operational is of paramount importance. Neways has developed a remote performance diagnostics methodology that can significantly speed up the build time and reduce unplanned downtime.
To remain at the leading edge, the high-tech industry is knuckling down on system performance, time to market and total cost of ownership (TCO). Each new machine generation, however, not only brings a performance increase but also a proportional rise in complexity along with it. This, in turn, raises the likelihood of integration issues arising when putting internally and externally developed subsystems together, as well as the chance of stoppages or faults occurring during operational use. Either way, productivity goes down and TCO goes up.
With its remote performance diagnostics methodology, Neways is assisting high-tech companies to help keep integration issues and unplanned downtime in check. “The approach improves the interaction between subsystems, minimizes the margin of error and allows for remote health status monitoring,” explains creator Ron Schram, system architect at the Son-based provider of electronic manufacturing services. “By designing electronics more smartly and analyzing potential problems in advance, system quality and availability can be increased and serviceability can be more targeted.”
