How visible is your tightening process?
Assembly operations are critical to safety and quality. Yet tightening often remains a blind spot where a single undetected issue can lead to costly rework, recalls or even safety incidents.
Limited visibility and scattered data make it hard to detect deviations early, causing more stoppages, longer cycle times and raising operating costs.
This is where DeMeter brings clarity and control.
How does Demeter software work?
Data Analytics Dedicated to Assembly
DeMeter isn’t just another analytics tool. It’s powered by Desoutter’s decades of tightening expertise, giving you sharper insights and safer, more reliable assemblies than any generic platform can deliver.
DeMeter automatically collects, monitors, and analyzes tightening data in real time. It transforms this data into actionable insights that help quality and operations teams monitor performance, detect anomalies, and act before problems impact production or customers.

For manufacturers who want to take analytics further, Desoutter service experts can help interpret complex behaviours, run root‑cause analysis, and guide corrective actions on demanding tightening applications.
Real-Time Production Visibility
Modern production lines generate vast amounts of tightening data, but that data is often scattered across tools, stations, and systems. DeMeter centralizes all tightening data into one platform, providing a clear and unified view of what is really happening on the line.
With DeMeter, teams gain real-time visibility into tightening results, NOK trends, deviations, and production status. Line performance and OEE can be monitored with a clear focus on tightening-related events, making it easier to identify bottlenecks and recurring issues.

By identifying tightening-related stop sources and underperforming stations, DeMeter supports proactive maintenance and continuous improvement. The result is more consistent joint quality, reduced variability, and improved confidence in tightening performance across shifts and production lines.
Digital Andon boards and smart alerts notify the right people at the right time – on workstations, mobile devices, or operator calls – so issues can be addressed immediately. This proactive approach helps teams react before tightening problems escalate into downtime, scrap, or customer complaints. Overall, DeMeter enables a shift from reactive troubleshooting to proactive control of tightening performance.
End-to end traceability and digital birth certificates
Traceability is a cornerstone of quality assurance, especially for tightening operations. DeMeter provides complete and reliable tightening traceability, recording every operation in detail.
Torque, angle, position, tool serial numbers, curves, and timestamps are all captured and stored. Assembly steps involving tightening are fully traceable, creating a solid foundation for audits, compliance, and customer requirements.
This data can be used to generate Digital birth certificates that demonstrate product conformity with confidence. Through open APIs, tightening data can also be shared with MES, ERP, or quality systems, ensuring consistency across the organization. With on-premise deployment options, manufacturers retain full ownership and control of their data.

Curve Analytics: See beyond the result
Curve Analytics, introduced with DeMeter.26 release, builds on the existing platform analytics to offer a deeper layer of visibility into how each joint is achieved, not just whether it passes.
Traditional monitoring focuses on final torque and angle values. Curve Analytics analyzes the complete tightening curve, providing AI-driven insight into joint behavior throughout the entire operation. By learning from historical production data, the system identifies and classifies joint patterns in real time. Each new tightening curve is automatically compared against known behaviors, helping detect hidden risks such as missing components, cross-threading, or machining variations - even when the final result appears “OK.

With intelligent alerts and user-controlled classification of normal and abnormal behaviors, Curve Analytics enables earlier intervention, reduced variability, and more confident quality decisions.
