SYSTEM FOR RECORDING THE ANALYSIS RESULTS AS PART OF THE QUALITY CONTROL PLANES IN A STARCH FACTORY

The paper aims to present the way in which a recording data system can be created using only programming in the EXCEL software, proposed as an efficient alternative to other expensive and complicated software programmes. A quality plan of a starch factory was taken as reference and a recording data system was issued starting from the results usually obtained at the analyses performed to ensure and follow the quality of the products. Each production step is controlled and for each product several parameters are identified using different analysis methods. The results are recorded and various functions available in EXCEL are used in order to facilitate the data interpretation, as well as to reduce at minimum the human errors. Instead of the paper recording results, we create easy to use EXCEL files in which the important data are marked, to facilitate the control of the production process and validate the quality and safety of the finished products.
