Simple SPC 4.0 Official Release

More Powerful. More Efficient. Built for Complex Quality Scenarios.

Following its recognition as a Recommended SPC Software in 2025, Bingo SPC is proud to announce the official release of SPC 4.0 in early 2026.

This major upgrade represents a significant leap forward—not only in statistical rigor, but also in operational efficiency, system scalability, and enterprise-grade usability. SPC 4.0 is designed to support more complex manufacturing scenarios while delivering faster insights and stronger process control.

1. Statistical Core: Built for Complex and Real-World Scenarios

Key focus: Breaking the limitations of fixed data structures

• Support for Variable Subgroup Sizes
  SPC 4.0 fully supports non-fixed subgroup data. All SPC reports, control chart algorithms, and monitoring modules have been upgraded accordingly, effectively addressing real-world sampling variability in production environments.
• Expanded Control Chart Algorithms
  New control charts, including MR-R/S Mean Charts and Moving Range Mean Charts, have been introduced to enhance statistical analysis for small samples and variable subgroups.
• Text-Based Data Traceability
  A new Text Data Type (Type 8) has been added, enabling the recording, upload, and traceability of non-numerical quality information—extending SPC coverage beyond purely quantitative data.

2. Analytical Tools: From Single Calculations to Advanced Diagnostics

Key focus: A productivity multiplier for Quality Engineers

• Enhanced CPK “All-in-One” Analysis
  The CPK analysis tool has been fully redesigned into a six-in-one diagnostic report, generating control charts, normal probability plots, capability comparison charts, histograms, and run charts in a single execution.
• Simulation and Capability Forecasting
  Users can now generate simulated datasets based on target CPK values, supporting process capability estimation and scenario analysis.
• Interactive Statistical Analysis
  Regression analysis, ANOVA, and t-tests now leverage interactive, spreadsheet-style interfaces, allowing samples to be selected directly from raw data for near-instant analysis.
• Optimized Visualization Performance
  Box plots, distribution fitting, and related charts now support significantly larger datasets with improved rendering performance and additional reference line options.

3. Monitoring and Alerts: From Detection to Closed-Loop Control

Key focus: Turning signals into actions

• Alert Frequency Optimization
  A new minimum alert interval prevents notification overload in high-frequency data environments. Historical alerts retain the corresponding specification limits and capability indices at the time of triggering.
• Multi-Dimensional Alert Strategies
  Alerts can now be triggered based on SPC out-of-control signals or insufficient CPK/PPK capability, with flexible recipient grouping and retry mechanisms.
• Closed-Loop Exception Management
  Improvement actions are deeply linked to abnormal events, with support for response rate statistics and logical deletion of resolved abnormal points—strengthening end-to-end quality issue closure.

4. Dashboards & Visualization: Multi-Dimensional Insights

Key focus: Clear visibility for informed decisions

• Statistical Dashboard (New Module)
  A dedicated management-level dashboard provides a comprehensive overview of SPC operations across the organization. Highly flexible chart definitions can be created using custom SQL, enabling enterprise-wide monitoring.
• Dynamic and Composite Dashboards
  Dashboards support automatic and manual switching modes, merged page displays, and configurable page dwell times. Dashboard categories and role-based access control are fully supported.

5. Data Entry & Collection: Seamless Multi-Device Collaboration

Key focus: Real-time accuracy and efficiency

• Multi-Platform Data Entry
  A new mobile data entry interface has been introduced. Manual entry screens now provide real-time feedback on process capability indicators (CPK/PPK).
• Full Data-Type Coverage
  Enhanced support for descriptive inspection items and variable subgroup inspection data.
• Advanced Automated Data Collection
  New JSON-based data acquisition configurations and direct synchronization with SAP inspection plans are supported.
• Measurement Device Integration
  Web serial port technology enables direct acquisition of data from electronic gauges and measuring instruments, automatically populating data entry forms.

6. System Foundation: Performance, Stability, and Security

Key focus: Faster, stronger, and more secure

• Performance Enhancements
  Bulk Excel data uploads are now up to 10× faster. Database connection pool optimization eliminates interface freezing under high-concurrency conditions.
• Global Time Zone Support
  User-level time zone configuration ensures accurate timestamp handling across global and multi-site deployments.
• Built-in System Maintenance
  Integrated log cleanup, monitoring image management, and SFTP-based remote data backup simplify system maintenance.
• Granular Access Control
  Fine-grained authorization for dashboards and pages by category, with global administrative override support for Admin accounts.

SPC 4.0 Is Ready

SPC 4.0 is now fully available.
We recommend starting with the enhanced CPK six-in-one analysis report and the new Statistical Dashboard to experience the most significant improvements firsthand.
