Babtec
We have been using Babtec since 1999 to plan and carry out our production quality tests. Version R6.15.3.1 is currently in use. In the course of continuous improvement, downstream processes are now also planned and monitored via Babtec.
We are currently using Babtec CAQ for quality checks in incoming and outgoing goods as well as for continuous production testing. For this purpose, quality check planning is carried out and subsequent statistical evaluations are called up.
