Employing FMEA (Failure Modes and Effects Analysis) ensures ongoing enhancements in processes and products. By preemptively tackling potential challenges, it fortifies reliability, safety, and overall quality.

Manufacturing automation is on the rise, offering quality control workers a career advantage. Stefan Friedrich of New Scale Robotics notes that as manufacturers embrace automation, it becomes more user-friendly, aiding new workers in using robots and software effectively.

Experts advise that calibration schedules should be both flexible and systematic. Alongside calibration and inspection, simple practices such as regular cleaning and proper storage are crucial for maintaining the accuracy and longevity of measurement tools, ensuring consistently high standards of precision and quality in manufacturing processes.

As businesses constantly refine their methods and gather data from various tools to get a clearer picture of how products move, they are increasingly reliant on automation.

Automation helps move skilled workers from repetitive tasks to more important roles, experts say. It’s essential to train them to use these new technologies properly.

As manufacturing and quality control becomes increasingly digital, auditing is increasingly enmeshed with technology and data analytics.

What exactly is an audit? An audit is essentially a health check for your business processes. Picture a doctor’s visit, but for your company

As technology scales down and the trend towards miniaturization accelerates, how does it affect the design and application of these critical lenses?
