Purpose

Extend your knowledge-base with Quantisolve

Chemical and physical measurement methods are usually complex and involve a lot of variables. In-depth knowledge of the chemistry and physics behind the test , as well as the inner workings of the instruments and the production process involved are required to guarantee proper implementation and execution. For many organizations, it is difficult to build or maintain the knowledge base needed for this. At the same time however, process optimization efforts are intensified, requiring additional measurement data to be generated. This means the laboratory or QMI department needs to implement new test methods and reduce turnaround times of existing tests, whilst maintaining data quality.

Control your product quality

Process optimization depends on the availability of accurate data, in this case mostly defined by repeatability and reproducibility. For internal process optimization, we would focus on repeatability. Reducing the repeatability in your measurement system allows tightening of control limits, enabling improvements in product quality or reducing production costs. Reproducibility on the other hand considers additional factors of variability in the measurement and is important when a process involves custody transfer of product. Ensuring your measurement system, or that of your supplier, operates within reproducibility limits avoids conflicts with customers, suppliers or governing bodies.

Improve your production processes

Owing to the complexity and the many variables involved in designing a measurement system, many systems are not implemented in an optimal way. These measurement systems suffer from large repeatability or reproducibility variation. In case of a standardized test method used for custody transfer, a system operating outside the variation allowed in the standard creates a risk for dispute. Quantisolve has 20 years of experience with chemical and physical test methods, and can help you validate, troubleshoot and improve your measurement system. Our services could help you to reduce cost and improve quality of your processes or products.
