relating inspection data, such as product (or process) attribute data, to
data from other manufacturing-related systems. Also disclosed are combined
systems and methods for linking product (or process) attribute data
obtained during the manufacturing process with one or more data sources
including raw material data, process setting data, product quality data,
and/or productivity data. Also disclosed are combined systems and methods
for identifying manufacturing set point changes and automatically
implementing such changes and automated web steering changes based on data
from one or more inspection systems.
