Production process and quality control methodology for plate manufacture

Task 5.2/3 - Adaption and verification of a component quality control technology and equipment to meet volume production requirements and to understand typical manufacturing process variation. Establish manufacturing processes in terms of yield and cost, reducing scrap and ensuring maximized utilization of high value in-coming materials. Identification of manufacturing failure modes and implementation of manufacturing control plans. Establish a methodology for an end-of-line test within a volume production process. Establish a QC methodology for volume manufacture addressing tolerances, yield, product consistency and inspection protocols as well as acceptance standards.
