Quality Control in Manufacturing Processes

An alteration made to a product or process based on a deliberate decision, often involving modifications to specifications or design.

A change that occurs unintentionally during production, often as a result of unforeseen circumstances or variations in materials.

An example of an intentional change, where the material used in the manufacturing process is deliberately switched.

An example of an incidental change, where the manufacturing process is altered without a planned decision, potentially due to unforeseen circumstances.

An example of an incidental change, a switch to a different batch of resin used in manufacturing.

An example of an incidental change, a change in the lot of foil used in the manufacturing process.

An example of an intentional change, modifying the mold significantly, leading to a change in the quality of the product.

Specific examples of potential quality issues that can arise due to incidental or intentional changes during the manufacturing process.

A critical measurement point checked during production to ensure consistent quality.

A sampling method used during manufacturing to verify that products meet quality standards.

These inspections focus on verifying the overall dimensions of a product to guarantee its functionality and fit within a larger assembly.

A visual examination where inspectors look for defects, flaws, or inconsistencies in the product's appearance.

A specific location on a product where a precise measurement is taken to monitor manufacturing consistency.

The evaluation of a manufacturing process to determine if it's capable of consistently producing products that meet specific requirements.

A comprehensive inspection that combines multiple checks, such as visual inspection and dimensional measurements, to ensure the quality of the product.

This process involves looking at key areas of a product, such as dimensions related to replacement parts, and ensuring that they're accurate and properly made.
