Industrial Modernization Incentives Program. Phase 2. Automated Quality Assurance System

Abstract

This report documents the results of the Automated Quality Assurance System (AQAS) Tech Mod project that was conducted by Teledyne CAE under the Industrial Modernization Incentives Program. AQAS is a computerized quality assurance system for input, storage, and analysis of quality and inspection data. As part lots travel on the factory floor, quality operation instructions can be viewed, inspection data entered on serialized and unserialized parts, gage calibration checked, and statistical process control charts viewed. The Phase II system runs on a MicroVax, and is written in Fortran 77 with calls to a regional data base (Ingres, Relational Technology, Inc.) and graphics software (DI3000, Precision Visuals, Inc.). AQAS can accept measurement data from a keyboard, digital gages, analog gages, an in/post-process grinding gage, files created by a coordinate measuring machine and a probe file created by a numerically controlled machine retrofit with a probe. Keywords: System architecture; Computer architecture; Interfaces.
