The Real Problem

1. Defect rate of 3.2% was above industry standard (1.5%)

2. Quality inspectors spending time on redundant checks

3. Equipment failures causing production stops

4. No predictive maintenance - reactive only

5. Historical quality data wasn't being leveraged

What We Actually Changed

Built manufacturing quality RAG:

- Analyzed 50 years of quality and maintenance records

- Predictive defect detection based on sensor data

- Equipment failure prediction

- Root cause analysis automation

- Quality trend analysis

- Maintenance scheduling optimization

- Integration with MES (Manufacturing Execution System)

- Real-time production monitoring
