Abstract
Systems and methods for automatically troubleshooting a machine, suitable for use in connection with a high speed web converting manufacturing process having at least one machine operating at a set point and producing a composite article from a sequential addition of component parts during a production run of composite articles. A first inspection system is adapted to automatically inspect a first aspect of a composite article being produced during the production run. A second inspection system is adapted to automatically inspect a second aspect of the composite article. A logic system is adapted to obtain via the communication network a plurality of the first inspection parameters, each corresponding to one of a plurality of composite articles produced during the production run and is further adapted to determine a corrective action.
