Process development & optimisation, machine characterisation, process monitoring, failure analysis and reliability analysis.
At PEM, we use the below areas of expertise in manufacturing operations.
Manufacturing process simulation modelling
Creating and analysing computerised, mathematical, or statistical models of a physical system that can be used to predict its performance and model what-if scenarios.
Statistical data analytics
Coherent, accurate, efficient, and effective statistical data analysis can be used to significantly improve and control process operations and performance.
Reliability analysis & prediction
Reliability systems analysis can be used to construct a distribution model to understand the times-to-failure of a system based on the failure distributions of the individual components.
Statistical process control
Statistical process controls are used to gather statistics on the behaviour and performance of an industrial process and, using decision algorithms, can assess whether it is necessary to implement changes. PEM can develop & facilitate clients in the use of multivariate Statistical Process Control processes, including profile monitoring & variable selection techniques.
Experimental design & process optimisation
Experimental design can be used to make systematic changes to a product or process, analyse the results of the changes and use this to identify the appropriate parameters to achieve optimum results.
Industrial metrology
Our PEM staff are trained in metrology methods, such as the use of optimal coordinate measuring machine (CMM) strategies which are critical to the quality control & verification process of precision machined components.
Vision systems
The adoption of vision-based fault detection and diagnostic technology can significantly reduce process down-time and out-of-specification product.
