Process Variables (tirou0105m000)

Use this session to define process variables.

Note: 

You can link process variables to operations, or operation steps in these sessions:

  • Operation (Step) - Process Variables (tirou1111m000)

    For Job Shop operations or operation steps.

  • Assembly Inspection Protocol (tiapl1120m000)

    For Assembly operation assignments

  • Inspection Protocol (tirpt2610m000)

    For Repetitive production models.

Field Information

Process Variable

process variable

Unit of Measure

unit of measure

Default Limit Type

Use this field to define how the measurement deviation of a process variable is expressed.

Allowed values

Absolute

The upper and lower deviation of the target value is expressed as an absolute value.

  • Limit

    If the upper limit is expressed as an absolute value, the value is defined to which the process variable's target value can be exceeded.

    For example, if the norm is 30 and the upper limit must not exceed 33, 33 is displayed this field.

  • Percentage

Percentage

The upper and lower deviation of the target value is determined by a percentage.

  • Limit

    If the upper limit is expressed as a percentage, the percentage is defined with which the process variable's target value can be exceeded.

    For example, if the norm is 30 and the upper limit must not exceed 33, 10% is displayed in this field.

  • Percentage

    If the lower limit is expressed as a percentage, the percentage is defined that the process variable's input value can be lower than the norm.

    For example, if the norm is 30, and the lower control limit must not be lower than 27, 10% is entered in this field.
