Hi, I'm Hanny, Mitutoyo's Data Management and MeasurLink Sales Engineer
and today we'll be talking about
20 new features in MeasurLink 9 in under six minutes.
Let's start off in Process Analyzer.
Process Analyzer has a great new function, a dynamic chart.
It's a calculator, it's called the Tolerance Calculator.
So here I have my CMM test part.
I'll click on the Tolerance Calculator under my Data tab,
and like I said, we have this nice dynamic chart here.
I can go ahead and adjust my tolerance limits and we'll see that
we'll end up adjusting all my capability indices here,
so I can start to see if my tolerance has changed,
what's that going to do to my capability index?
What we can also do is we can set a target index as well.
So if I have a CPK and I want to target a 1.67, for example,
what is that going to do to my tolerances?
What sort of tolerances do I need to have and maintain to keep everything
at that target, 1.67 with all my existing data.
So this can really help design engineers and production really determine
what it is that they are capable of doing, and what do they need to change to get there.
Staying inside of Process Analyzer, we also have what's called
a filter of the tree for gages and notes.
So, for example, I can click on my MeasurLink demo here,
I can click on my filter, go to my gage,
and maybe I'm going to do an audit on these gages here, and I want to find out
all the different runs that have used those gages.
And so now I can see I have my MeasurLink Demo 1 run.
And those were the only,
that was the only data that I've ever used for those gages.
So that'll help me there.
I can pull a report if I wanted to there as well.
In addition, inside of Process Analyzer, we have performance enhances.
So you'll see Process Analyzer will move a lot quicker.
You'll see performance enhances actually, pretty much everywhere inside of MeasurLink,
inside of Real-Time, request to the database, all that kind of stuff you're going to see
MeasurLink going to go super, super fast.
We'll also see a probability charts filter inside of Process Analyzer as well.
So if you've used the probability charts, you can run a filter on that information.
Inside the gage management module, you can create a model from an existing gage.
So if you have these gages that you've already created inside of,
inside of your library, you can create a model from them to help you
create new gages without having to retype in all the same information.
So creating gages from a model are going to be a great new way to do that.
Now, you can do it from the existing gages as well.
You'll also see a new help,
a new help function inside of MeasurLink.
It runs on HTML5, so you'll see a brand new user interface.
You'll see improved search functions in there.
Let's take a look at the box plot.
So the box plot that'll be available in your reports, it will be available in Real-Time.
So over here, we'll see that we have a new box plot here
that you can use to help you analyze some data there.
We also have a percent from target. So here we can see the last measurement I took
was about 36% from target on my length was about 98% from target.
So those are going to be really useful to know basically how far from target
you are and really how close you are to your tolerances as well.
We also have new statistics as well,
so we have a PPU and a PPL index as well that you can use.
We have support for OPCUA, which is going to be a new DAQ source you can have.
So if you want to connect to an OPCUA server, you can collect data from that.
You can collect data from QIF 3.0, we support that.
QIF in and QIF out.
So, for example, if you want to import a QIF plan, you can do that
and it'll create all of your MeasurLink parts and routines,
and then you can send data out through QIF in XML format that,
you know, machines can read, other software can read.
So if you want to transfer this information in and out,
you'll be able to do that through QIF 3.0.
We also have a permit's function in Security Center.
So let's jump into Security Center here
and we'll see that we have this new Permit's option.
So you can create different permits to give different users access to certain parts.
So, for example, if you have ITAR restricted parts
and maybe only the admin is allowed to use that,
you can go into your support center, go to your Part Library,
and we have this new permits tab that you can require a permit for it.
So anyone who's not the user who has that permission to do that,
they won't be able to see any of the information inside
of the Part Library for, for that part that has that restricted access.
Let's see, we also have a part defective option.
So you can add that to Real-Time and to your reports.
So basically, you'll know how many in your run had defective parts in there.
You can add multiple assignable causes to.
So before we fully supported one assignable cause, now if a part goes out of spec,
you can say it's out of cause
and I'm going to assign a cause because of X, Y and Z.
And let's see, finally,
our last feature is going to be Collection Scheduler,
a brand new module added to MeasurLink version 9,
so you can keep track of the schedule of all your data collection.
So I'll go to my modules, I go to my Collection Scheduler module here,
and I can see that I have some some parts that are due for measurement here.
So I'm going to take a measurement here for this job and that job.
And I see over here that this one is in "Warning"
and I need to take a measurement there very soon.
So now operators can keep track of multiple machines and multiple jobs,
making sure that all their inspections are being taken on time.
And there you have it, that's 20 new features in under six minutes.
