Inspection reports & PPAP/EMPB
Illustrative example — not a customer reference- Problem
- Measured values are transferred by hand from inspection reports into customer templates and checked against tolerances.
- Result
- Structured, tolerance-checked output in the customer's format.
- Intake
- Extract
- Validate
- Route
What happens inside
- 01Receive the report (PDF, scan, export).
- 02Identify document type and template.
- 03Extract characteristics and measured values.
- 04Check against drawing tolerances.
- 05Flag missing or inconsistent values.
- 06Fill the customer template (EMPB/PPAP).
- 07Route to the responsible inspector for sign-off.
Measurement records from CMM, hand gauges and test benches are transferred field by field into the customer template (EMPB / PPAP Level 3, balloon numbers, first-article inspection report) and checked against drawing tolerances. Deviations are flagged. Two correction loops are part of every pilot; acceptance measures a field-level hit rate of at least 95% against customer-approved reference documents.
For machinery in scope of EU Machinery Regulation 2023/1230 (binding from 20 January 2027), the evidence trail — conformity, technical documentation, traceability of measured values — plugs into the same automated flow.
AI is used here only for extraction and mapping. The tolerance check itself is deterministic, and every generated document stays with the customer for sign-off before it goes out.
