Method for providing production-related data, especially of motor vehicles
First Claim
1. A method for making available production-related data in a series production process for the production of produced objects, especially motor vehicles, in accordance with which, during at least a portion of the finishing sections of the series production process, a worker captures production-related data via a hand-held data acquisition device having an information input component, characterized in that, pictures of defect locations on the produced objects are captured by means of a camera associated with the data acquisition device and the pictures are transmitted during the performance of finishing work on the produced objects in the series production process to at least one central device.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method for providing production-related data in the series production of produced objects, especially motor vehicles, according to which production-related data is recorded in at least a part of the production steps of the series production process. The inventive method is characterised in that images of defective sites on the produced objects are recorded with a camera and in that during the production process, the recorded images are transmitted to at least one central device. The inventive method provides a rapid, simple and comfortable means of documenting defects in produced objects. The recorded images and production-related data that may be optionally added to these images are already available at the central device and can be evaluated at a time when the produced object is still in the production process. This facilitates the planning of refinishing considerably, which in turn saves time and reduces costs.

18. A method for making available production-related data in a series production process for the production of produced objects, especially motor vehicles, the method comprising:
-
during at least a portion of the passage of the produced objects through a plurality of finishing sections of the series production process, capturing by photographing means production-related data concerning non-conforming locations on the produced objects, the photographing means being associated with a data acquisition device in a manner such that captured production-related data can be inputted to the hand-held data acquisition device; and
transmitting the captured production-related data from the data acquisition device to at least one central device during a time period during which finish work still remains to be performed on the produced object during its passage through the plurality of finishing sections of the series production process. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34)
