Power of 100% Inspection

What are the benefits of 100% inspection and why is it valuable?

When you measure every single part you produce you gain a complete, unvarnished view of your production process. While a sampling measurement strategy may guard against certain production concerns – many data patterns only become visible through the use of 100% inspection:

Additionally, many of the most powerful statistical analysis tools (Cp, Cpk, Pp, Ppk, 6-sigma, etc.) are only effective when using larger, more representative sample sizes – sample sizes provided only through 100% inspection.

How can I use 100% inspection to improve my process?

Process variation reduction can be accomplished through a tested and proven method that has been successfully employed by Perceptron and our customers for many years. In its most simplistic form, the process can be described in three steps:

Create a stable process through the use of interactive case studies. Perceptron’s training and consulting resources will help empower your dimensional team to quickly turn 100% data into actionable information. Perceptron’s breakthrough Argus software is also available for automated detection of process anomalies and case study creation.
Move the process to where the part should be built based on repeatable, accurate data. Once the manufacturing process is stabilized, precision adjustments can be made to optimize the build and insure the highest quality end result.
Maintain an optimized, functional build by leveraging the benefits of 100% inspection. Automatically monitor each and every part. Contain any potential bad parts, minimize scrap and rework costs, and immediately validate process adjustments – leave nothing to chance.
