Denso’s Way to Visualize BIG Data 3: Additional Quality Control Tools

In my last two posts, I talked a lot about the free Analysis Platform application, used by Denso and others to dig deeper into big data to understand what exaltiert is happening on your shop floor. I showed you the Digital Native Seven Quality Control Tools (DN7 or DN7QC7). But beyond these seven tools, there are a few more included in the application, which I also would like to show you briefly here.

And, on top of that, I will also briefly show you Seven New Quality Control Tools that are not really part of the application, but aim to dig deeper into problems that are hard to quantify, and many of these tools are more based on relations than on data.

Denso’s Way to Visualize BIG Data 2: The Digital Native Seven Quality Control Tools

In my last post, I started to talk about the free Analysis Platform application used by Denso and others (especially in Japan) to tackle big data. In this post I will go into much more detail on what Denso calls the Digital Native Seven Quality Control Tools (DN7 or DN7QC7). These data analysis tools go way beyond the usual things you can do in Excel, and are designed to tackle big data analysis for industry 4.0. Beyond that, this application also includes more tools, which I will also show briefly in my next post.

Denso’s Way to Visualize BIG Data 1: The Analysis Platform Application

A lot of problem solving is about understanding the current situation. Ideally this includes data. There are a couple of ways to analyze data. Denso uses seven traditional ways of analyzing data, which you are all familiar with. However, they expanded these tools with the goal to analyze big data. They call it the Digital Native Seven Quality Control Tools (DN7 or DN7QC7) …and of course I will share this with you. Even better, there is a freely available tool “Analysis Platform” that does these analyses for you (albeit it is not that easy to use).
