Digitalizing Production: How Virinco’s WATS Centralizes Your Test Data to Accelerate Decision-Making
Modern manufacturers face a growing challenge: the multiplication of test data coming from benches, production lines, or maintenance operations. This data is valuable, yet often scattered across multiple systems, making it difficult to use efficiently.
This is where Virinco’s WATS comes into play — a powerful cloud solution that Neosoft integrates to give you complete visibility over your test and production performance.
The Challenge of Test Data in Production
Every product tested generates data: measurements, results, diagnostics, repairs. Across multiple lines or sites, this information accumulates — often in different formats.
Without centralization, analyzing trends, identifying root causes, or reacting quickly to quality deviations becomes extremely complex.
Regulatory requirements, tight deadlines, and continuous improvement goals all demand a more structured approach: intelligent, centralized management of test data.
WATS by Virinco: A Cloud Platform to Take Control of Your Testing
Developed by Virinco, WATS (Web Automated Test System) is a cloud platform dedicated to collecting, centralizing, and analyzing test and repair results.
Neosoft integrates it directly into production workflows to provide real-time visibility into quality and performance.
Key advantages include:
- Centralization: all your test results (LabVIEW, TestStand, Python, etc.) are automatically sent to a single database.
- Intelligent analytics: trend detection, failure rate monitoring, and rapid identification of root causes.
- Complete traceability: each tested product has an accessible history, useful for audits and maintenance.
- Smooth integration: WATS communicates via REST API with MES/ERP systems and integrates seamlessly with National Instruments test tools.
- Clear visualization: dynamic dashboards, custom filters, and automated reports accessible anytime.
How Neosoft Deploys WATS in Your Environment
As experts in test system integration, Neosoft supports organizations in the complete implementation of WATS:
-
Needs analysis: identifying data sources and key metrics to monitor.
-
Test bench connection: configuring WATS plug-ins for LabVIEW, TestStand, and other environments.
-
Report definition: customizing dashboards based on each role (production, quality, engineering).
-
Training and support: transferring knowledge to ensure full team autonomy.
Tangible Benefits for Industry
- Faster decisions: real-time access to the performance of each line or product.
- Improved quality: quick identification of deviations and at-risk batches.
- Assured traceability: simplified compliance for audits and certifications.
- Multi-site visibility: comparisons between plants and remote monitoring of subcontractors.
- Fast return on investment: reduced unplanned downtime and optimized analysis time.
Best Practices to Maximize the Value of WATS
To fully leverage WATS, Neosoft recommends:
- Defining critical KPIs from the start: reject rate, first-pass yield, average test time.
- Ensuring data consistency across all test benches.
- Involving quality and production teams in the daily review of dashboards.
- Scaling gradually: start with a pilot perimeter before expanding across the entire network.
Conclusion
With Virinco’s WATS, Neosoft helps manufacturers transform their test data into a true performance driver.
By centralizing information, making it actionable, and accelerating decision-making, this solution is perfectly aligned with Industry 4.0 strategies.
