QUAD: Board Repair Assistant & Quality Management System
|
QUAD (QUality ADvisor) is a flexible
modular Quality Management system built around a centralized and open
architecture database, providing traceability for any PCB electronic
production data. QUAD covers all quality aspects of PCB assembly,
sub-assembly and system build, allowing you to manage the quality data
flow from product realization to product retirement. It has been
designed to be used either standalone or to be easily integrated into
any existing production environment.
|
|
It offers a powerful support for PCB fault diagnosis and provides access to
detailed information in real-time that can be presented clearly and precisely
using advanced reporting. This allows users to analyze real-time
information, in order to diagnose and resolve process problems at the earliest
opportunity to improve yield, quality and productivity, which will ultimately
result in lowering cost.

QUAD comprises of the following modules:
- QuadRecorder module allows automatic access to all test and diagnostic
results generated by ATE (ICT, FT, BST, FPT, AOI, AXI and other dedicated systems).
- QuadStation module analyzes the data presented to
the repair and diagnostic station, to allow the operator to quickly fix the
detected fault and graphically input repair data into the QUAD database.
- QuadReports module produces quality management
information and reports in real time through intranet or internet.
- QuadSetup module allows operations such as; user
account management, system configuration, import of external data, export of
database records and system monitoring with the aid of the automated dashboard
feature.
