When new tooling is completed, we arrange for tool trials to be conducted in-house or in local trial shops to prove the tooling function and moulding process.
Usually, Liondell staff are on-site to assist with the trials to ensure that everything runs smoothly and that the client’s expectations are met. If trials are conducted independently then we will be given full reports including process parameters so that we can verify and arrange to see a further trial if necessary. If any corrective action is necessary, corrective action (PFU) reports are completed to improve the results at the following trial.
ISIR reports are submitted after every trial. All of our suppliers own or have access to CM Machines and other inspection equipment necessary to produce accurate reports.
Over the years we have supplied thousands of parts from China.
