Quality. Quality. Quality.

Quality. Quality. Quality.

We talk about it endlessly, but what does the measurement of quality in the plastic industry really mean?

To effectively measure the quality of a product you need to start by understanding the exact specifications of the part you are working to deliver, including its desired use and any nuances that make it particularly unique. Having an open, communicative relationship between both parties is key to achieving this.

Once that is understood, the judging criteria can be set against the intent. Aspects of the molding such as stability, color, and gloss can be easily compared to prototypes, and of course, any molding defects can be identified and rectified quickly to ensure that the end product is outstanding.

The simplest and most effective way to deliver this, and remove ambiguity across shifts and team members, is to have a comprehensive, detailed checklist that is followed during visual inspections. Having a physical list covering surface finish, cavity depths, color, and hardness amongst dozens of other checkpoints, with special attention being paid to defects such as dimples or sink marks, which can occur during cooling, and burn marks which can occur if the plastic is left in the mold for too long is a simple yet effective way to guarantee the highest quality.

Whether the manufacturing process is overmolding, insertmolding or injectionmolding,  there always has to be a foolproof quality control set in place to make sure inferior products are not released - using a process that can be repeated at scale, and which is aligned to expectations is the difference between what a market leader such as plastic experts ADIS Tachov s.r.o. deliver, versus those who give quality less focus.

Supplying the auto industry, including multiple luxury brand car producers, ADIS know that the value of quality is more than an individual part, it's about providing Quality with Integrity.
