Refining for Agile Manufacture

Check the product according to “DFM Check list”, summarize the potential problems.

Design the draft processing flow (SMT,DIP, Test, Assembly, Package)

Hold a DFM review meeting with ENG team to discuss and find these potential problem. （NPI engineer, SMT engineer, TE, QE, IE, PE, ME）

Output DFM Report and suggestions to the designer or partner. Communicate and define the solution

Output the final processing flow

Review or design the test items and method to ensure the quality, making the test fixture to reduce the testing cycle time. Replacing the common device or hardware circuit parts to increase the stability of product and cost down. Review or design the layout, the reasonable layout will improve the Yield and cost down in the production, that will enhance the product reliability.

Review the Test Plan

Matching the common material model

PCB Layout service

Receive and check the MFG files （Schematic and layout, BOM, Gerber, Test Plan, PCB requirement, ） and sample from client

Output the Final Test Plan

Output the final BOM

Output the modified Schematic and layout and Gerber

Receive and check the MFG files and sample from client

Qualify the new material and new supplier

IQC Inspect and test input material

FAI Check

Self-checking of process

IPQC inspection

Full inspection and Testing online

OQC Outgoing quality control

Establish quality control plan & quality Inspection specifications

regulating for responsiveness and reliable
