What is the Production Tooling Manufactured Parts Inspection?
This inspection process involves comparing the dimensions, shapes, and features of parts produced using tooling (molds, dies, jigs, fixtures, etc.) to the original design or a master part. It ensures that the tooling is functioning correctly and that the parts produced meet the desired quality and tolerances.
Key Features of Production Tooling Inspection
Dimensional Accuracy Verification
We measure critical dimensions of manufactured parts and compare them to the original specifications or CAD models.
Consistency in Mass Production
The inspection ensures that all parts produced from the tooling are consistent in size, shape, and quality, minimizing variability across production batches.
Tooling Wear and Deviation Analysis
Over time, tooling may wear out or deviate from the original design, leading to defects. This inspection detects these issues early, allowing for timely maintenance or adjustments.
Fit and Function Testing
The parts are evaluated to ensure they fit and function as intended when assembled with other components, maintaining the integrity of the final product.
Reverse Engineering Comparison
If original designs are unavailable, a master part is used as a reference to inspect and validate the tooling-produced components.
Our Production Tooling Inspection Process
Master Part Analysis
The original part or design is analyzed to establish the baseline measurements and tolerances for comparison.
3D Scanning and Measurement
Manufactured parts are scanned or measured using advanced tools such as Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMM) or 3D scanners.
Data Comparison
The scanned data is compared against the original part or CAD model to identify any deviations.
Deviation Reporting
Detailed reports are generated, highlighting discrepancies and providing recommendations for corrective actions.
Tooling Evaluation
If discrepancies are found, the tooling is inspected for wear, damage, or misalignment to determine the root cause.
Corrective Actions
Adjustments are made to the tooling or manufacturing process to resolve identified issues, ensuring future parts meet specifications.
