How to determine the quality level of a equipment manufacturer
Thread Content
Dear sea friends, I have a question: when dealing with an unfamiliar equipment manufacturer, how can one determine the quality of its manufacturing standards? What indicators should be considered, and what are the acceptable values for these indicators? Thank you!
First, you should go to his manufacturing site to take a look – see if it’s large or small, whether it operates in a standardized manner or not. Then check whether his products have been tested and come with certificates, as well as determine how many customers he has and what level of strength his company possesses, etc.:lol
I agree with you; add one more – look at the performance.
What I mean is to consider how many customers there are and what their strength is, that is, the performance: lol
Scale of production facilities, process management； Various corporate qualification requirements ； External evaluation
Check the quality of paint application by the equipment manufacturer. Only first-class equipment manufacturers can achieve proper anti-corrosion coating. It’s useless to look at the others.
Check whether the salary levels in this job posting are high or low within the industry
First, software. For high-end manufacturing companies, software is essential; there must be skilled professionals in CAD, CAE, and CFD areas. Second, as for hardware, it matters whether the workshop is tidy and whether the processing equipment is advanced (high-end manufacturing enterprises certainly use state-of-the-art equipment). Third, it’s important to consider how much inventory the company has – several hundred million worth of materials (this is quite normal for companies with strong financial resources). Performance is the last thing to consider; these days, except for a few devices, detailed information can be obtained for most others by spending some money. (Because there are many companies that started early and have good financial results, but whose actual products are of poor quality; I’ve experienced this firsthand.)
Generally, a comprehensive scoring sheet is used to evaluate suppliers, and a final score is determined to draw a conclusion. If you must check something, then check the \"QHSE System\".
Software: the number and skill level of technical personnel, whether all departments are adequately staffed, and the number of workers in the workshops along with their professional competence； Hardware: the size of the site, whether it meets standard requirements, and whether the machinery and equipment are sufficient or advanced enough
