Support aids flexible manufacturing
Energy management specialist SatCon Technology has worked with Universal Instruments to complete the integration of a new automated assembly system for future generations of its products.
To ensure Universal Instruments can concentrate its efforts on providing full support to customers with active equipment, all company products move through a product support life cycle.
Within this life cycle there are active, standard, reduced, and inactive support phases.
Each phase carries with it a different degree of coverage for technical support, field service, product training, and replacement parts.
On a product's last date of manufacture, the company evaluates the product to determine its progression through the different levels of the life cycle.
By continually evaluating products and moving them to appropriate support levels, Universal Instruments can provide customers with the support they need for their current production machines.
Two versions of the Product Support Status Tool were created to provide users with up-to-date information about support status changes.
Users can view a list of all active (currently manufactured) products by visiting the company's website and selecting the "product support status" link listed under the "service and support" column on the right.
Users registered to MyUniversal (Universal Instruments' secure, customised website) can view a list of all products, regardless of support status.
In both versions, users can search for products by product code (for example, 4681) or product name (GSM Platform).
