INTEGRATED AND INTELLIGENT PAINT MANAGEMENT

摘要

Methods, systems, and computer readable-medium with instructions for receiving data and providing calculated adjustments to a paint application process can comprise receiving at the server a first operating parameter associated with a first paint processing machine at a first painting facility. The method can also comprise receiving at the server a first quality control measurement from an analysis of a finished first paint product. Additionally, the method can comprise accessing from a database a set of historical operating parameters associated with the first painting processing machine. Further, the method can comprise automatically identifying a deficiency in the finished first paint product based upon the first quality control measurement. Further still, the method can comprise transmitting to a mobile computing device screen a proposed adjustment to the first operating parameter that will correct the deficiency.

1. A first system for monitoring a paint application process at a first facility and automatically adjusting paint parameters within a first multivariate paint application system based upon sensor data gathered from various first sensor modules receiving data from various points within the first paint application system, the system comprising:
a quality assurance parameter database, the quality assurance parameter database being configured to provide an indication of an ideal range of a final paint product attribute; an electronic sensor module configured to automatically measure the final paint product attribute on a completed product; a quality assurance processing module configured to:
receive the measured final paint product attribute from the electronic sensor module over a network, anddetermine that the measured final paint product attribute is outside of the ideal range; a paint application system configuration module configured to:
access a first facility database of one or more operating parameters from one or more paint application machines that performed a step in the process of painting the completed product and one or more paint mixture ingredients that were used in the process of painting the completed product, anddetermine, using a first multivariate analysis, at least one of the one or more first operating parameters that if adjusted would place the final paint product parameter for future products within the ideal range, wherein the multivariate analysis accounts for at least current environmental conditions, machine operation parameters, and paint ingredients; and a computing device comprising a screen that is configured to display a proposed adjustment to at least one operating parameter, wherein the proposed adjustment is received from the paint application system configuration module.
