A Babtec Case Study
ZI Jena GmbH, a medium-sized sheet metal processing company serving high-stakes industries like medical technology and aviation, faced a significant challenge in managing its complex part approval process. The manual effort required to stamp CAD drawings and create initial sample inspection reports was immense, sometimes taking a full day per sample, which led to an unsustainable workload for its small quality assurance team. To address this, the company implemented the QM solution, specifically the "Part Approval Process" module with CAD integration, from vendor Babtec.
The solution implemented by Babtec automatically stamped drawing dimensions and transferred tolerances directly into inspection reports, drastically reducing manual data entry. As a result, ZI Jena reduced the time required for creating an initial sample inspection report from one day to just 10-20 minutes. This efficiency gain led to a 50 percent reduction in the overall quality assurance workload. The success of this initial implementation has created a solid foundation for ZI Jena to expand its use of Babtec's software with additional modules.
