• Design & Engineering check sheets at three different levels to ensure customer requirements are followed, Action items logs are reviewed so build questions are resolved in a timely manner.
• A Mold build plan detailing customer expectation is developed with descriptive build requirements for each department.
• CMM “Metrology” check requirements are developed with the customer to ensure all critical features are controlled and checked.
• A detailed Mold Check List is completed by the tool maker and reviewed by the Forman & Program manager at the end of the build prior to shipment. We encourage our customer to inspect their tools with us prior to delivery.
• Any non-compliant issues will be corrected prior to shipment or shipped with the customer’s authorization.
• Any defect would then be corrected after first sample during the first progression of the tool.
