Quality Gate Monitoring for Manufacturing
Map quality checkpoints to your production floor plan. See pass/fail rates, SPC trends, and defect counts per station with color-coded overlays on actual equipment locations.
Where Things Break Down
Quality and production data are disconnected
Your quality team uses SPC software. Your production team watches PLC dashboards. When defect rates spike, someone has to pull data from both systems and manually find the correlation. That takes hours.
Defect patterns are hard to spot in spreadsheets
A CNC cluster producing parts with a gradual dimensional drift is visible on a floor plan where you can see the affected machines in context. In a spreadsheet, it is just another row of numbers among thousands.
Quality checks happen too late in the process
End-of-line quality checks catch defects after the value has been added. By the time a part fails final inspection, you have invested the full production cost. Earlier visibility would let you catch issues mid-process.
What Sandhed Does Differently
Sandhed places quality gate status indicators directly on your 3D floor plan. Pass/fail rates, SPC trend data, and defect counts are displayed as color-coded overlays at each checkpoint. When a gate starts showing declining pass rates, the upstream stations are immediately visible in spatial context. You can see which machine feeds that gate, check its sensor data, and correlate equipment health with quality output, all from one view.
Quality Gate Status on 3D Floor Plan
Each quality checkpoint is displayed on your floor plan with color-coded pass/fail indicators. Green, amber, and red status badges let you scan the entire production floor for quality issues in seconds.
Station-Level SPC Overlays
Statistical process control data mapped to individual stations on the floor plan. See control limits, trend direction, and out-of-spec readings as visual overlays on the equipment producing them.
Defect Pattern Visualization
When multiple stations show related quality issues, the spatial layout on the floor plan makes the pattern visible. Trace defect flow from source station through downstream quality gates.
Threshold Alerts for Quality Metrics
Set acceptable ranges for pass rates, defect counts, or SPC parameters. When readings cross your limits, alerts go to the quality team with the station location and relevant data already included.
Results You Can Measure
Common Questions
Sandhed connects to your quality data sources via OPC UA, MQTT, or REST APIs. Pass/fail counts, defect rates, and SPC parameters are mapped to specific stations on your 3D floor plan. Each quality checkpoint shows a color-coded badge: green for within spec, amber for trending toward limits, and red for out of spec. You can click any station to see detailed quality metrics and trend charts.
Yes. Because both quality metrics and equipment sensor data are mapped to the same floor plan, you can see them side by side. When a quality gate shows rising reject rates, you can check the upstream equipment's vibration, temperature, and cycle time data to identify whether an equipment issue is causing the quality problem. The spatial layout makes these connections visible.
Any metric that your quality systems expose through standard protocols. Common examples include pass/fail rates per station, defect counts by category, SPC measurements (Cp, Cpk, control chart data), torque verification results, dimensional measurements, and visual inspection outcomes. The platform handles numeric data from any connected source.
You configure high and low thresholds for any quality parameter on any station. When a metric breaches a threshold, Sandhed creates an alert with the station location, metric value, and threshold setting. The alert goes to subscribed users via email and shows as a real-time notification in the platform. Alerts auto-resolve when the metric returns to the normal range.
Yes. Sandhed is designed to visualize quality data, not replace your quality management system. It reads data from your existing sources and adds the spatial context that standalone SPC tools lack. Your quality team continues to use their familiar tools for detailed analysis while using Sandhed to see where quality issues are emerging across the floor.

OEE Improvement
Most manufacturers know their OEE score. Few can point to the exact machine, shift, or station dragging it down. Sandhed maps availability, performance, and quality data onto your floor plan so you can see where OEE drops and why.
