Error proofing: reliably ensure product quality in every stage of the process
The value of an end product is determined along the entire value-added process: the quality of every component, every manufacturing process and every assembly step affects the final result. In the current edition of Impulse – the ifm show we show you the challenges in automated and manual processes and the solutions ifm offers. Using the example of a component, the path of the product is traced from production through product control to quality assurance prior to shipping. The solutions are presented in a practice-oriented manner.
And what about the quality assurance of ifm products? This edition provides a rather unexpected answer to this question.
