Limit Scope of a Tire Recall

Obtain real-time quality control

Within the tire industry, new industry standards are increasing the need for manufacturers to reevaluate their operations and consider quality management systems (QMS). Quality management systems are essential for improving business operations and enabling you to meet industry regulations and customer-specific requirements. Several major automotive OEMs require QMS systems in their supply base to facilitate comprehensive quality control throughout the production lifecycle. Are you ready to stay compliant and get the most out of your system?

Plex QMS enables a single source of data that provides reliable, real-time data analytics which help manufacturers identify and address potential issues before they affect quality. Plex QMS also helps meet the International Automotive Task Force's IATF 16949 quality standard and best practices from the Automotive Industry Action Group (AIAG). Implementing Plex QMS will help empower tire manufacturers to optimize quality processes, minimize defects, and ensure consistent product quality.

What can Plex QMS do for your tire manufacturing?

In the tire industry, failure to deliver quality and reliability can be expensive. It is vital that manufacturers uphold quality standards to maintain customer satisfaction and brand reputation.

Minimize Risks to Reputation

With the ability to document quality thoroughly and store this data for several years, Plex QMS customers are always recall-ready and able to protect their reputations.

Manage Costs

Using predictive quality management methodologies help you reduce costs, scrap, and risk which unlocks opportunities to scale and gain a competitive edge. With rubber being a dynamic material, process control and having a first-time quality focus are important to decrease added costs from rework and maintain original equipment yield.

Quicker Time to Value

Plex QMS implementation was designed with speed and ease in mind so you can move from the ideation stage to production quickly, easily add capabilities over time, and promptly deliver value.

To help provide a comprehensive production operations management solution, Plex QMS is fully integrated with the FactoryTalk® ProductionCentre® manufacturing execution system. Read how this integration has helped Prometeon move towards a more streamlined connected system and enable more predictable quality delivery.

Designing your operations to reduce risk

Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is a systematic tool that helps manufacturers detect risks and predict failures and find potential causes for failures by comprehensively analyzing designs and processes. Identifying these risks and failures can help reduce waste, improve customer satisfaction and increase profit margins. However, FMEA needs to begin with purposeful and careful planning, so be sure to know which type of FMEA is best for your initiatives and understand the steps needed to perform an analysis successfully.
