Frequently Asked Questions

Traceability is the ability to track every part and product throughout the manufacturing process.

Information on each part and product, including inspection results, assembly details, and time spent at each station, is recorded from end-to-end.

 

Paper and spreadsheet systems can’t keep up with modern production demands. A digital system records data right at the work station, ties it automatically to machines and batches, and makes it available instantly. That cuts down on errors, makes audits less painful, and gives you information you can use for improvement.

Sextans-RT is the core core operator-facing application used by Sorion systems. Running on a touch screen PC, Sextans-RT displays step-by-step instructions, connects with devices and collects production data.

Sextans Workspace Manager is the core management software for all workstations. This is where engineers can manage their hardware, users, production data and processes.

Orion QTR (Quality, Traceability and Reporting) is the application that produces in-depth reports based on the production data gathered by Sextans.

The system automatically records data as the build progresses, ensuring every unit is audit-ready without the manual overhead. Data collected includes:

  • Task and step confirmations – timestamps, digital signatures, Operator ID
  • Cycle times
  • Quality and measurement data – torque values and data from connected tools and sensors
  • Traceability and Serial Data – Barcodes, QR codes, or component serial numbers
  • Media capture
  • Audit trail and compliance data – Complete historical logs required for regulatory standards like ISO, FDA, or IATF proving that procedures were followed without deviation
  • Electrical test data: V, I, & R, Part ID, Control Module Data & DTC’s

Sorion integrates with a wide range of systems to streamline operations and enhance connectivity. Its open architecture allows integration with ERP systems, quality management systems, and various manufacturing equipment, including both legacy and modern devices.

Sorion’s Sextans platform supports IIoT devices and sensors, enabling real-time data collection and machine monitoring.

The software can integrate with factory assembly tracks, assembly equipment and tooling, pick to light devices and barcode scanners.

This flexibility allows Sextans to adapt to existing infrastructures and improve operational efficiency across different industries.

The implementation timeline can vary based on the complexity of your project. However, manufacturers typically roll out their pilot station within a few weeks.
