Inspection & Quality

Inspection & Quality 

To stay competitive in an ever-growing market it is important that you have strict inspection and quality controls in place. Therefore, investing in an inspection and quality control solution is vital. This investment can contribute to the inspection, validation and quality control of main types of measurement equipment. Measurement is critical to the importance of product functionality, to record, report and sharing this data efficiently is a key aspect of any manufacturing process.

If any of these challenges resonate with you or are areas of concern in your current manufacturing processes, Symetri can help you to make informed decisions as to the available solutions to suit your needs.

  • Difficulty inspecting complex free-form models
  • Need to find optimum stock distribution
  • Human errors cause failure with no real-time visibility
  • Lack of cohesion between measuring technologies
  • Unable to highlight problems early in the manufacturing process
  • Qualifying fixtures and tooling being used on the shop floor

Inspection

Whether you are a supplier performing Source / On-Site Inspection, an end-user performing a Receiving Inspection procedure, a manufacturing engineer performing Shop floor (In-Process) Inspection throughout the machining process or a quality department inspector testing products at the Final Inspection phase, the inspection of simple or complex components is an essential stage throughout the products lifecycle. Inspection procedures are used to ensure the product aligns with predetermined quality standards and helps manufacturers produce accurate, high-quality components whilst reducing waste and increasing manufacturing efficiency.

These types of inspections are carried out using CMM, Automated Probing Techniques and/or Manual Measurements techniques. Automating these processes using inspection software can ensure that Inspection procedures defined through quality control are consistent and managed to a high standard.

Quality Control

Quality control in a manufacturing environment is essential when delivering high-quality products to customers. Quality control helps define a procedure or set of procedures that check the quality criteria of a product throughout the manufacturing processes and ensure they meet the customer or client specified requirements.
