GOODS INWARDS INSPECTION: -

Goods-in inspection is carried out with the relevant equipment. In most cases for sub-contract assembly work, it takes the form a visual inspection and a check on any identified critical areas. 

PLEASE NOTE:-

MACHINE SETTING DOCUMENT:-

An internal machine setting document is kept for each application, which includes, tooling identification, records of all the required equipment setting, i.e. times, air pressure etc. An engineer is responsible for the setting of the machines prior to any process being handed over to production. 

QUALITY CONTROL: -

It is often the case that several assemblies are used in the machine setting procedure before correct alignment and leveling is achieved.

For our inspection purpose the first off is regarded as a component presented by the engineer after machine setting operation is completed.

Components used in setting of the equipment, may well be perfectly OK, it is for this reason that, any part considered OK are returned to the customer, separated and marked "COMPONENT USED IN SETTING OF EQUIPMENT PLEASE INSPECT BEFORE USE" 

Periodic inspection is then carried out during the manufacture.

In most cases and wherever possible ALS will retain for its records one pre-welded and one welded component together with the first off test sample from each batch. We will retain these parts for a minimum of 21 days after dispatch of goods.

In the event of any defective welded parts, ALS must be informed within 14 days of dispatch. No parts should be disposed of until responsibility has been assigned and the necessary corrective action taken to prevent re-occurrence. This is to be submitted and agreed in writing.
