Inspection stages
A part cannot move to the next stage until it passes the gate before it.
Incoming
Gate 01Raw material inspection
- Mill certificate verified against grade
- Bar diameter and straightness
- Chemical composition checked against the mill certificate
- Material segregated and tagged by alloy
Awaiting partCleared, on to the next gate
In-process
Gate 02First-off and patrol inspection
- First-piece approval before the run starts
- Patrol checks at fixed intervals on every machine
- Thread gauging go / no-go
- Tool wear monitored and offsets recorded
Awaiting partCleared, on to the next gate
Final
Gate 03Final inspection and release
- Sampling plan against the drawing
- Visual inspection for burrs and damage
- Plating thickness verification
- Inspection report issued with the lot
Awaiting partCleared, released for dispatch
Measuring instruments
