Lack of real-time visibility into critical manufacturing metrics like yield and throughput creates business risk
See real-time manufacturing metrics across SKUs, stations, lines, and sites – all in one place. Receive proactive SPC alerts to catch drifts and changes before they impact yield and leverage a live Pareto to prioritize issues.
Factory escapes cause returns, brand damage, safety liability, and cost. Best practices to prevent escapes are ineffective.
For High Volume Electronics, ensure high quality and reduced rework by catching defects across multiple lines and SKUs. For Mission-Critical Electronics, achieve zero escapes with an automated visual inspection that is faster, better, and cheaper than manual inspection.
You have to meet your yield and schedule, and the manual failure analysis process is slowing your team down.
When an issue arises, use Instrumental’s failure analysis tools to solve them quickly. It offers complete data traceability and generates new data through AI-powered measurements. It enables virtual teardowns and facilitates root cause identification through AI-assisted correlations.
A core product was being returned at higher rates, and in less than two weeks, Instrumental helped us discover the root cause. This allowed us to respond quickly and deliver an even better product to our customers, all from our home offices.”

Manufacturing Engineering Manager, OwletLenovo is a leading global designer and manufacturer of laptops, tablets, smart devices, servers, and with their acquisition of Motorola Mobility in 2014, phones. Their persistent commitment to innovation and cutting-edge manufacturing processes culminated in the launch of the Motorola Razr, with its folding screen, ambitious zero-gap hinge, display robustness requirements, and miniaturized design. To bring such an ambitious product to market, Lenovo successfully executed on a variety of production process advancements to their already industry-leading manufacturing practice.
When the Motorola Mobility development team handed off Razr to Lenovo’s manufacturing team for production, Lenovo partnered closely with Instrumental. Instrumental’s holistic data capturing, intelligent AI processing, and real-time reporting powered the advanced practice of continuous optimization at Lenovo, pushing Lenovo even farther ahead of the competition.
Even amidst the industry-wide business continuity challenges caused by COVID-19, Lenovo has been able to achieve yield improvements, scrap reduction, and team productivity gains throughout ramp and production.
