Infodream Guest Speakers at LVMC'09 Conference
Large Volume Metrology Conference & Exhibition 2009
3 & 4 November, Chester Racecourse, UK
Infodream are very privileged to have been invited to speak at this year’s large volume metrology conference (LVMC) to discuss the benefits of statistical process control (SPC) within aerospace manufacturing.
The LVMC combines technical conference sessions with a comprehensive trade exhibition of some of the world’s leading measurement system manufacturers. The conference offers opportunity to learn from key people in the field and hear about the latest work that is being done in your industry.
SPC for aerospace is an area where Infodream has many years experience from our industrial partnerships with key organisations within the sector. Aerospace has traditionally been very slow on the up-take of continuous improvement tools such as SPC but this is slowly changing.
Our presentation will discuss some of the historical reasons for this, how and why things are changing and where SPC can be implemented as a key tool for continuous improvement.
Topic Covered will include:
- Introduction to Variation Reduction & Statistical Process Control (SPC)
- Comparison of traditional and modern quality approaches
- Common misconceptions surrounding the use of SPC for aerospace
- Applications for SPC within aerospace manufacturing
- Real Case Study – Presentation by Airbus explaining how SPC has been used to great effect to drastically reduce assembly time at the St Nazaire plant in France.
