Assignment of Test Equipment to Inspection Characteristics
Use
You can use this function for inspection planning in the routing to specify which production resource/tool (PRT), for example, which measuring device, is required as test equipment when a quality inspection during production is carried out.
When you release the order, the system transfers the test equipment assignment to the inspection lot. When recording the inspection results for an inspection characteristic, you can display the production resources/tools for the corresponding operation. Test equipment is highlighted in the display.
Prerequisites
Production resources/tools that you want to use as test equipment must be assigned to the same operation as the relevant inspection characteristic in the routing.
The assignment of test equipment must be allowed in the control indicator for the inspection characteristic.
Features
When assigning test equipment, you have the following options:
You can assign test equipment directly to the inspection characteristic.
If you have maintained several materials to be produced, you can also assign individual pieces of test equipment to every material/inspection characteristic combination.
When an inspection lot is created, the system transfers the test equipment assignment for the material/inspection characteristic combination. If no such assignment exists, the system uses the test equipment directly assigned to the inspection characteristic.
