Quality is the lifeline of an enterprise and, for Taizhou Shaneng Technology, the unwavering core principle that we steadfastly uphold. Throughout the entire R&D and production process of new energy materials, we adhere to systematic thinking to proactively prevent quality issues and ensure product stability and reliability. Today, we will provide a detailed explanation of our production quality management. The six core elements (people, machinery, materials, methods, environment, and measurement), Establish a solid quality foundation through standardized methods.

I. Man — Operator Factors

Frequently Asked Questions:

· Insufficient operational skills

· Weak quality awareness

· Lack of responsibility

· Inadequate training

Solution:

· Strengthen quality awareness: Conduct regular quality-awareness training, integrating material properties and process knowledge to enhance employees’ commitment to quality.

· Standardize operational procedures: Develop equipment operation standards and inspection work instruction manuals, implement a dual assessment system combining theoretical knowledge and practical skills, and ensure consistent operation.

· Implement a mentorship program: Establish a “senior-to-newcomer” mentoring mechanism, and enhance new employees’ job competency through regular training and strengthened accountability.

Case: An electronics manufacturer has implemented a “senior-to-newcomer” mentoring program, reducing onboarding time for new employees by 40% and lowering the product defect rate by 25%.

II. Machine – Equipment Factors

  Frequently Asked Questions:

  · Equipment aging

· Insufficient accuracy

· Lack of maintenance and upkeep

· Improper selection

Solution:

  · Establish a routine inspection system: Conduct daily pre-startup checks of critical parameters (temperature, pressure, current, speed, etc.).

· Regular preventive maintenance: Develop annual, quarterly, and monthly maintenance schedules; perform scheduled replacement of wear parts; and maintain an inventory list of spare parts.

· Introduction of automated equipment: Utilizing high-precision automated equipment to minimize human error.

· Standardize equipment use: Develop equipment operating procedures to ensure proper operation by employees.

Case: An automotive parts manufacturer achieved a 30% reduction in equipment failure rates and a 20% increase in production efficiency by implementing a preventive maintenance program for its equipment.

  III. Material — Material Factors

Frequently Asked Questions:

  · Unstable raw material quality

· Chaotic supplier management

· Improper storage

Solution:

  · Rigorous supplier management: select high-quality suppliers, enter into quality agreements, and conduct regular on-site audits.

· Strengthen incoming material inspection: Conduct full or sampling inspections of critical materials and establish procedures for handling nonconforming products.

· Optimize warehouse management: implement zoning and classification, adhere to the first-in, first-out (FIFO) principle, and maintain proper temperature and humidity control.

· Establish a traceability system: enable batch-level traceability of materials to ensure that quality issues can be traced back to their root cause.

Case: A food company established a material traceability system and, during a raw-material quality issue, completed a product recall in just two hours, thereby averting substantial losses.

  IV. Method — Process Method Factors

Frequently Asked Questions:

  · Unreasonable process parameters

  · Incomplete work instruction manual

  · Inadequate implementation

  · Lack of change management

Solution:

  · Optimize process parameters: Use DOE (Design of Experiments) to optimize the process and develop standardized documentation.

  · Enhance work instruction manuals: Develop visual, richly illustrated guides that clearly outline operational steps, quality standards, and procedures for handling abnormalities.

  ·Strengthen process control: Implement first-piece inspection ( Final Quality Control ) and process inspections to ensure process consistency.

  ·Standardize change management: Process changes must be validated, reviewed, and approved before implementation.

Case: A pharmaceutical company optimized its process parameters through DOE experimental design, increasing the product qualification rate from 92% to 98% while reducing production costs by 15%.

  V. Environment – Environmental Factors

Frequently Asked Questions:

  · Temperature and humidity out of control

  · Insufficient cleanliness

  · Environmental impacts such as noise

Solution:

  · Real-time environmental monitoring: Deploy temperature and humidity sensors and other devices to enable real-time alerts and data logging.

  · Strengthen foreign-object protection: Implement robust foreign-object control at production areas and all process interfaces, with regular inspections and verification.

  · Implement 6S management: put in place Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize, Sustain, and Safety to maintain a clean and orderly working environment.

Case: A precision electronics manufacturer achieved a 22% reduction in the defect rate and an 18% increase in production efficiency by implementing 6S management.

VI. Measurement — Factors to Be Measured

Frequently Asked Questions:

· Insufficient accuracy of testing equipment

· The method is unscientific

· Missing records

Solution:

  · Regular instrument calibration: Calibrate measuring instruments (such as balances and electronic scales) on a scheduled basis and affix calibration labels.

  · Standardize testing methods: Develop measurement operation manuals that clearly define test items, frequency, and acceptance criteria.

  · Promote digital inspection: introduce a data storage and sharing platform, and use digital inspection equipment to record data.

Case: A mechanical processing plant has achieved a 99.9% accuracy rate in inspection data and an 80% reduction in response time for quality anomalies by implementing a digital inspection system.

Conclusion

Quality management is a systematic undertaking that requires comprehensive efforts across six dimensions: people, equipment, materials, processes, environment, and measurement. Through continuous optimization and rigorous implementation, we can effectively prevent quality defects, enhance product competitiveness, and lay a solid foundation for the enterprise’s high-quality development.
