Statistical Process Control
 
Process control status and trend data is obtained, processed, posted, distributed, and used in each stage. Process flow charts with SPC methods and current charts are available on process control boards in production areas.
 
Variable data for process capability control (Cpk) is obtained whenever possible. X&R charts are used to control and identify potential problems.
 
Attribute characteristics are control charted and Pareto defects corrected. Yield monitor data is used to measure continuous improvement performance toward six sigma goals.
 
Any pre control trend or intolerable condition is communicated immediately for correction. Additionally, operators may stop any process producing or marginally close to producing nonconforming product.
 
Workmanship Standards
 
ANSI/IPC 610C and other applicable IPC standards are used unless denoted by the customer. Any deviation requires both partied approval on the Deviation Request form.
 
ESD Protection
 
All sensitive materials, products, equipment, surfaces and personnel areas are ESD protected. Work surfaces either have dissipative laminates or properly grounded table mats. Employees are required to wear wrist or heal straps when handling material or products. The straps are tested and logged daily. The procedure for ESD handling and control have been established and enforced throughout the production area.
 
Shipping
 
Finished product is recorded and logged for trace ability. Also, the customer may provide label, revs, or bar codes that we will place on the finished product. Product is packaged per customer instruction or by standard ESD packaging and shipping procedures. Finished products are inspected to make sure that that parts meet customer requirements and assembly drawings.
