Abstract

Methods and systems include receiving a product attribute that identifies a product. A first component attribute and a second component attribute are received. The first component attribute identifies a first component included in the product and the second component attribute identifies a second component included in the product. The methods and systems further includes receiving first manufacturing data associated with the first component and second manufacturing data associated with the second component, applying a set of compatibility rules to the first manufacturing data and the second manufacturing data, determining pairing data from the application of the set of compatibility rules to the first manufacturing data and the second manufacturing data, applying a set of pairing rules to the pairing data, determining one or more actions from the application of the set of pairing rules to the pairing data, and performing the one or more actions.

Dependent claims

A method comprising:

receiving a product attribute identifying a particular product in use by an end user, wherein the particular product includes a first component and a second component;
receiving a first component attribute identifying the first component;
receiving a second component attribute identifying the second component;
receiving first data of the first component, wherein the first data includes data generated during use of the particular product including the first component by the end user;
receiving second data of the second component, wherein the second data includes data generated during use of the particular product including the second component by the end user;
comparing the first data to the second data;
identifying a measure of compatibility between the first component and the second component based on the comparison between the first data and the second data;
determining pairing data based on the measure of compatibility between the first component and the second component;
applying a set of pairing rules to the pairing data;
determining, based at least in part on the application of the set of pairing rules to the pairing data, one or more actions to perform in association with the particular product;
analyzing manufacturing data for a plurality of groups of products to determine similarities in the manufacturing data within the groups of products;
identifying same measures of compatibility for assembled products based on the determined similarities, wherein the particular product and the assembled products are in a same group of products;
and
transmitting, based on the set of pairing rules and the identified same measures of compatibility, a command to a manufacturing controller to augment a manufacturing process or a testing process for the assembled products with similar measures of compatibility.

A method comprising:

receiving a product attribute identifying a particular product in use by an end user, wherein the particular product includes a first component and a second component;
obtaining a first component attribute identifying the first component;
obtaining a second component attribute identifying the second component;
receiving first data of the first component generated during use of the particular product including the first component by the end user;
receiving second data of the second component generated during use of the particular product including the second component by the end user;
comparing the first data to the second data;
identifying, based at least in part on the comparison between the first data and the second data, a measure of compatibility between the first component and the second component;
determining, based at least in part on the measure of compatibility between the first component and the second component, that pairing data for the first component and the second component is unavailable;
receiving, in response to determining that the pairing data is unavailable, performance data of the particular product generated during use of the particular product by the end user while the first component and the second component are installed on the particular product;
generating a set of pairing rules based on the measure of compatibility and the performance data of the particular product;
analyzing manufacturing data for a plurality of groups of products to determine similarities in the manufacturing data within the groups of products;
identifying a same measure of compatibility for an assembled product based on the determined similarities, wherein the particular product and the assembled product are in a same group of products;
and
transmitting, based on the set of pairing rules and the identified same measure of compatibility, a command to a manufacturing controller to augment a manufacturing process or a testing process for the assembled product.
