Optimise your quality control
Control and improve batch quality according to ISO standards (ISO 2859, ISO 3951 or others) with Ellistat's quality control software (IQC).
Reduce your controls
Thanks to Ellistat's IQC (Incoming Quality Control) module, you can automate your incoming quality control. Incoming inspection allows the acceptance or rejection of a batch of parts presented by an internal or external supplier. It is also referred to as incoming inspection or inspection by sampling, but also as final inspection or release inspection.
However, there is no question of controlling the entire production process. This is why we take a sample and use ISO standards (ISO 2859, ISO 3951 or other) to guarantee an acceptable level of quality, which depends on the size of the batch, the level of control and the AQL.
Our assets
Connection to measuring instruments :
- Automatically import measurement data into Ellistat using any communication protocol (USB, Bluetooth, RS232, .txt files, etc.) to avoid manual data entry errors.
Using progressive control and dynamisation rules :
- To minimise the number of parts to be measured while guaranteeing the same level of quality
Management by feature type :
- To enable better monitoring of supplier quality
How does it work?
A plug & play solution: connect your measuring equipment directly to the Ellistat quality control software (IQC) whatever the connection mode (Bluetooth, USB, RS232, CMM, etc.) and automatically record all your quality controls.
Define upstream lot acceptance criteria (sampling plan, type of inspection, etc.) and draw up the list of suppliers.
So, depending on the history of controls carried out on the batch, the IQC module will determine whether controls need to be reduced or increased. This is known as dynamisation.
We've thought of everything to make your life easier!
Our key features
Management of inspection plans :

- Automated switching between control levels (normal/reduced/enhanced) based on results
- Monitoring and history of changes in control levels
Sampling plan :
- Creation and management of sampling plans in compliance with ISO 2859 and ISO 3951 standards, with the option of customisation.
- Definition of sample sizes and acceptance/rejection criteria
- Customisation of sampling plans according to the specific characteristics of products and suppliers
Progressive control :
- Implementation of progressive controls with adjustment of control frequencies based on results
Management of ISO 2859 and ISO 3951 standards:
- Full compliance with ISO 2859 (sampling plan for inspection by attribute) and ISO 3951 (sampling plan for inspection by variable)
- Automatic updating of standards and associated methodologies
Traceability and data recording :
- Complete recording of control data with sample traceability
- History of checks and decisions taken, secure access and management of user rights to consult and/or modify data

- Clear, intuitive display of control data
- Accessibility via different devices (PCs, tablets, smartphones)
Our IQC methodology:
à la carte support!
1. Diagnosis: First of all, before implementing quality control software, it is essential to understand the production process as a whole.
2. Creating standards in a range: Setting up the incoming inspection software and training administrators in the use of the Ellistat IQC module
3. Data transfer: Automated import of customer data into Ellistat.
4. User training: A reminder of the basic concepts of sampling.
5. Production start-up : To conclude, setting up field routines
Your feedback
We've been using Ellistat every day for 2 years. The tool has enabled us to reduce our set-up times significantly and improve the quality of our parts. Machine set-up is easier and it's simple to use.
Ellistat is a production tool that perfectly meets the expectations of Industry 4.0. Automated Process Control makes it easy to control the numerical controls, while guaranteeing a very high level of quality.
The ergonomics and ease of use of the "Control by sampling" module enabled us to implement the solution in our "Quality" department in just a few months. Thanks to Ellistat IQC, we have made a significant leap forward. We have gone from operating entirely on paper to the solution proposed by Davy and his team. We now have a computerised history of our controls. The data exported by our measuring equipment is directly integrated into our inspection protocols, which are automatically adapted - in terms of severity - according to the history of our measurements.
