SASData and AI platform

SAS data and AI for manufacturing quality

Bring quality data from every system together, find root causes faster and predict problems before they reach the customer.

SAS Visual Analytics batch analysis using parallel coordinates to link raw-material quality checks to yield

Overview

SAS combines data integration, machine learning and streaming analytics to give manufacturers a consolidated view of quality across products, people, places and processes. SAS Viya is the underlying data and AI platform; SAS Production Quality Analytics is a cloud-native solution built on it.

Outcomes manufacturers target

  • Less scrap, waste and rework
  • Higher yield and lower cost per unit
  • Faster issue resolution and more uptime

Manufacturing quality capabilities

Integrated quality data

Combine data from separate systems and apply machine learning and deep learning.

Yield optimisation

Recommended set points, control limits and specifications, backed by root-cause analysis.

Real-time response

Streaming analytics suggest actions while problems are still developing.

Predictive quality

Detect anomalies early to prevent failures and escapes.

Automated monitoring

Alerting on quality signals across lines and plants.

KPI dashboards

Reporting for quality exploration and process optimisation.
