Production Security
Comprehensive product testing before shipping to a customer is a critical and advantageous practice that ensures the delivery of high-quality goods. By subjecting products to rigorous testing protocols, manufacturers can identify and rectify potential defects, malfunctions, or performance issues before they reach the hands of consumers. This meticulous process not only enhances the overall reliability and durability of the products but also contributes to customer satisfaction and loyalty. Thorough testing helps in preventing costly recalls, warranty claims, and customer complaints, thereby safeguarding the brand’s reputation. Moreover, it promotes compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements, reducing the risk of legal implications. In essence, investing in comprehensive product testing not only guarantees the delivery of a reliable and flawless product but also fosters trust and confidence among consumers, establishing a solid foundation for long-term success in the market.
As part of Adelphi’s commitment to quality, production security is ensured by our comprehensive 5 stages of testing including:
Stage 1 – Build:
- Key requirements of customer specification are checked against drawings
- Pneumatic components are checked for any leaks
- All nuts and bolts are checked to ensure correctly tightened
Stage 2 – Dry Test:
- Individual components are run on one of our workshop test rigs for 2 days
- Product cylinders are disconnected and the machine is run for 2 days to check for any loose parts
Stage 3 – Wet Test:
- Run with both water and product (if possible), the machine will undergo testing before calibration to check for leaks
- Once calibrated it is run for 10 runs of containers
- Consistency of each head is checked to ensure they are all within our workshop set tolerance
Stage 4 – Pre FAT:
- In house accuracy testing on the customer’s required fills
- Testing is constant while the machine is set to various output speeds and automated functionality setting to ensure capability
Stage 5 – FAT day:
- Machine is tested with customer present or via video to demonstrate ability to meet customer requirements.
