Plastic Injection Molding Quality Assurance & Testing Processes

 

Plastic Components relies heavily on our process control at the machine, but we also have invested significantly into our quality lab, which allows us to do advanced quality measurements and inspection utilizing the latest technology available in the marketplace.

The Plastic Components quality lab consists of two rooms. Our first article inspection room on the other side of that door, which has our multi-access CMM for full-inspection of for shots and ppap submissions. And then this room, which is our ongoing production quality.

Every cubby hole represents a manufacturing cell on the floor with its own unique quality plan based on the collaborative control plan produced between the customer and PCI. Behind us or the automated pieces of equipment, including a touch probe CMM, a roundness tester, a surface finish tester, and then this advanced microscope from Keyence that we use for quality investigations.

My name is Gene Mussel, and this is the Mussel Minute with the goal of educating the industry as well as our customers and how PCI utilizes technology to provide exceptional quality to our customers.
