Manufacturing and Production

Inspections

 

Sample checking Services

What is Sample Checking?

A sample checking service involves inspecting a relatively small number of items from a batch or lot, for a range of specifications such as appearance, workmanship, safety, functions, etc. prior to mass production.

It is an essential step before the manufacturing process, beginning with a physical inspection of a product sample before production begins in order to spot any defects prior to mass production. And during the sample checking process, the physical and functional characteristics of the product should also be verified against engineer drawings, a purchase order, specifications and/or other design documents, ensuring the quality of sample meets with specified requirements to avoid bulk quality problems during the manufacturing process, as well as the reliability and consistency of the manufacturing process and final product.

QCIS sample checking service mainly includes the following Criteria:

  • Field Test & Measurement:

Test the procedure and product in actual situation reflecting the intended use;

Survey of the existing condition and the comparison of dimensions with those shown on drawings at the field site

  • Workmanship Check: 

Check the degree of skill and the quality of materials and finished product based on a design

Style, Color & Documentation: 

  • Quantity check:

Check the quantity of finished goods to be manufacturedcheck whether the product style and color are consistent with the specifications and other design documents

  • Shipping Mark & Packaging:

Check whether the shipping mark and packages comply with relevant requirements.

 

Pre-production Inspections (PPI)

Quality control inspection may be done before production or fabrication on raw materials and production equipment and machinery to confirm whether they are in good working condition to fulfil the requirements and product specifications. It also helps to assertain whether the supplier has the capabilities to fulfil the order and  meet the production schedule.

The service can be beneficial where there is an issues with materials and/or component replacements and when many outsourced components and materials are required during production or in some cases when you evaluate a new suppliers performance

 

During Production Inspections (DPI)

During production, the products are inspected to verify that quality requirements and specifications are being met. This process is useful in cases of repeated defects in production. It can help identify where in the process the problem occurs and provide objective input for solutions to resolve the production issues.

THree types of Product Quality Defects

Defects detected during visual inspections are classified into three categories as follows:

Critical defects

  • Critical defects are defined as non-compliance with mandatory regulations that may harm the consumer's health, safety, or the environment. These include defects of product functionality and safety, as well as defects in product quality, i.e. appearance.

  • For electrical products, an example of a critical defect would be if your product doesn’t pass a hi-pot test or earth continuity testing, indicating unsafety of the product that poses a risk of electric shock.

  • For textile products, the detection of broken needles in a textile piece will be considered a critical defect, and for children's toys - the presence of sharp corners of plastic/metal that can harm a child is considered critical.

  • Also, defects related to non-compliance with hygiene, product storage conditions and the risk of spreading diseases, for example, the presence of hair, mold, blood drops on the product or packaging, traces of insects, etc.

  • The default tolerance for critical defects according to AQL is 0, which means that even if one critical defect is detected, it is not recommended to accept the batch for shipment, and better to recheck the whole production again for defects.

Major defects

  • The second most important set of defects are major defects, which affect the functionality of the product. These defects are likely to result in function failures or reductions of the usability of products or obvious appearance disfiguration, which may affect the salability of products.

  • An example of major defects in electrical products is non-compliance with the specified product characteristics. For example, if the actual power of your power bank does not match the power indicated on the label - this case happens quite often, because suppliers replace the batteries inside the power bank (or insert a dummy) and pass them off as more powerful.

  • Loop stitches and open seams are examples of major defects in the textile inspections. Such defects can lead to poor structure, the product might lose its marketable appearance. Incomplete or excessive stuffing of plush toys, for example, is also considered a major defect.

  • The classification itself based on well-established examples from inspection practice. You can add your own examples and create a list of major defects based on your expectations about the quality of your own product. Some customers include defects of the logo and marking in this list, as misplacements can have a bad effect on the brand image.

  • The most widely used tolerance of major defects according to AQL is 2.5. For a sample size of 200 pieces, the acceptable number of defects in this case is 10 pieces. If an inspector finds 11 or more defects in a sample size of 200 pieces, it is recommended not to accept the batch.

Minor defects

  • Product defects that will not reduce the usability or function of the product, but are beyond the defined quality standard, are minor defects. These are mainly defects in product’s aesthetics and appearance that are less noticeable, and which are located on non-central parts (parts B and C) of the product.

  • Spots, scratches, dirt and dust marks on the product, slight deformations or slight gradation of color - all these are examples of minor defects that can have a negative impression on the consumer due to an imperfect product appearance.

  • It should be understood that even the smallest speck of dust can affect the quality of products. For example, dust inside the LED panel or light bulb will leave dark spots on the panel itself, and the light distribution will not be ideal.

  • Again, you can make a list of minor defects yourself according to your understanding of the quality level of your produ

  • cts and their compliance with the expectations of your customers.The default acceptance limit of minor defects according to AQL is 4.0. For a sample size of 200 pieces, the acceptable amount of minor defects is 14 pieces. If an inspector finds 15 or more defects in a sample of 200 pieces, it is recommended not to accept the batch.
