![case study_kr](https://info.csolsinc.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Literature/Project%20Case%20Studies/case%20study_kr.png?width=219&name=case%20study_kr.png)An in-process testing system for the polymer manufacturing lines of a chemical company needed to be updated to reduce downtime and improve testing flexibility.

Without the desired enhancements, the manufacturing line would continue to be interrupted with legacy software failures that required human intervention.

A custom application needed to be written to send manufacturing parameters to the Empower CDS for in-line quality control samples. However, to achieve the project objectives, there were hurdles to overcome.
