Standardize the Measuring Process
How many times have you heard an assembly operation complain that incoming parts are consistently out of spec? How many times have you heard the parts people trash assembly folks for not knowing how to use their measurement tools? They were shipped good parts and now they measure bad. What’s going on here? Where is the problem?
During the manufacturing cycle for a part or product, many people will look at the part to determine whether it meets the specification. Typically, these could include the machinist producing the part, a QC person, an incoming inspector at the company using the part, and finally another inspector who may be responsible for evaluating the manufactured part’s performance within an assembly.
With this many inspection processes, it’s very unlikely that they will all be similar, let alone use the same gaging equipment. Even if skilled craftsmen at each inspection point follow their particular measurement processes to the letter, there will, at times, be unsettling disparities in measurement results.
