IMPROVE : Quality , Efficiency , Cost
SAVE: Time, Money
Data acquisition can help us gather data that would otherwise be difficult to obtain
manually. This data can help us better understand a product or process. Improvements
can take the form of higher quality, more efficiency, or lower costs, resulting
in savings of time or money.
Key benefits:
• Reduce time needed to manually collect data
• Reduce errors that can occur when inputting data to a computer by hand
• Operate unattended for days/months/years
• Make high-speed collection rates possible
• Provide tighter control than is possible manually
