Tolcap is web-based software that enables engineers to allocate process capable tolerances to ANY design characteristic. It manages tolerance allocation and predicts process capability at the early stages of design BEFORE production starts.
Using Tolcap, the impact of a design being out of tolerance can be assessed and a cost of quality can be assigned. This allows alternative designs and manufacturing processes to be compared directly on a total cost basis.
Tolcap addresses one of the biggest problems facing 21st Century engineering - managing variability.
-
Increase Profitability
Costs of re-work, scrap and returns can exceed 20% of sales revenue. Up to half of these costs are caused by incorrect
allocation of tolerances. Tolcap alleviates these problems at the design stage,
increasing profitability, sending massive savings
straight to the bottom line.
-
Right First Time Manufacturing
Tolcap will show you whether the tolerances you put on a drawing will be
process capable BEFORE the production process begins.
This right-first-time design tool prevents costly manufacturing and assembly problems.
-
Six-Sigma Defect Reduction
Use of Tolcap will reduce defects and will improve product quality by managing process variation to
six-sigma standards.
-
Supply Chain Satisfaction
You won't have to ask your supplier "Can you make this?". Instead you can provide a
process capability prediction for the
feature. Using Tolcap, you will solve problems on the same
side of the table as your supplier.
-
Better Design Decisions
Pinpoint the most efficient manufacturing process
for your product and examine alternatives for cost and capability from over 80
manufacturing options.
-
Equal
Opportunity
Where you have a tolerance stack, why have some tolerances that are
easy to meet and others too tight? Using Tolcap you'll get all the elements in the stack equally capable.
