Investing in efficient quality control is essential for any company. It is often thought that quality control should be reinforced at the end of the manufacturing process, but it is much more efficient to schedule controls and inspections throughout all phases of production.
To achieve this, it is essential to have a responsible and proactive team, with clearly defined processes. Furthermore, communication between the design and manufacturing departments is key.
Clear parameters and indicators must be established for verifying products at each stage of the production process. The cost of correcting an error at the end of manufacturing is significantly higher compared to detecting it early on. The best control is always error prevention.
Considering a generic equipment manufacturing process, the following stages must be controlled:
- Selection and verification of the personnel involved in the project.
- Verification of welding procedures.
- Confirmation and identification of materials and consumables.
- Dimensional control.
- Welding control.
- Pre-assembly of equipment and subassemblies.
- Surface treatment control.
- Final verification.
- Packaging, loading, and securing control for containers or trucks.
There are many benefits to investing resources in quality control and managing them properly.
The most notable are:
- Company image.
- Customer loyalty.
- Improved delivery times.
- Cost reduction.
- Continuous product improvement.
