挑战
Republic Manufacturing 是工业鼓风机和真空泵的领先生产商，在为客户保持最高质量水平方面面临着挑战。他们的检查过程是双重的，涉及操作员记录质量数据并在组装过程中进行检查，然后质量控制检查员在完成后验证产品。这一过程在保证质量的同时，由于使用纸质检验报告，既耗时又复杂。由于频繁的产品变更和变化，该公司在培训员工方面也遇到了困难。传统的纸质方法不仅效率低下，而且容易出错和丢失数据。
关于客户
Republic Manufacturing 是世界一流的工业鼓风机和真空泵生产商。自 1962 年以来，他们一直在突破现代制造的界限，引导他们设计和创造自己的先进产品系列，不断为工业市场带来创新。他们致力于为客户和公司提供价值，了解高质量制造的重要性以及工作指导软件如何将质量推向新的水平。该公司以其致力于提高行业质量标准而闻名。
解决方案
Republic Manufacturing 转向 VKS（一种工作指导软件）来改进其质量方法、检查流程和员工能力。该公司实施了四种方法，显着提高了质量标准、生产率并减少了总检查时间。首先，他们将检验流程数字化，将质量控制检验时间减少了 75%。二是用图片准确向人员展示检查重点，确保审核到位。第三，他们将序列号、扭矩规格和皮带张力等质量数据数字化，使其易于访问且不易丢失。最后，他们利用 VKS 为每个单元提供详细的检查指南，降低检查员忘记检查某些内容的风险，并使新检查员能够更快上岗。该公司还计划实施 VKS ToolConnect 以自动应用正确的扭矩值，同时记录数据以进行质量控制。

IoT platform Enables Safety Solutions for U.S. School Districts
Designed to alert drivers when schoolchildren are present, especially in low-visibility conditions, school-zone flasher signals are typically updated manually at each school. The switching is based on the school calendar and manually changed when an unexpected early dismissal occurs, as in the case of a weather-event altering the normal schedule. The process to reprogram the flashers requires a significant effort by school district personnel to implement due to the large number of warning flashers installed across an entire school district.

Industrial Video Monitoring for Security and Regulatory Compliance
Because of the Stevenson mill’s proximity to the Tennessee River, WestRock was required by the USCG to comply with the Maritime Security 33CFR (MARSEC) regulations. WestRock needed a video security system but wanted to add other applications not required by the government, such as video process monitoring, condition monitoring, and wireless network management. WestRock needed a reliable video solution to avoid the compliance fines and possible security risks – but the solution needed to be implemented in the most cost-effective manner possible.

Revolutionizing Medical Training in India: GSL Smart Lab and the LAP Mentor
The GSL SMART Lab, a collective effort of the GSL College of Medicine and the GSL College of Nursing and Health Science, was facing a challenge in providing superior training to healthcare professionals. As clinical medicine was becoming more focused on patient safety and quality of care, the need for medical simulation to bridge the educational gap between the classroom and the clinical environment was becoming increasingly apparent. Dr. Sandeep Ganni, the director of the GSL SMART Lab, envisioned a world-class surgical and medical training center where physicians and healthcare professionals could learn skills through simulation training. He was looking for different simulators for different specialties to provide both basic and advanced simulation training. For laparoscopic surgery, he was interested in a high fidelity simulator that could provide basic surgical and suturing skills training for international accreditation as well as specific hands-on training in complex laparoscopic procedures for practicing physicians in India.
