Standardisation of processes
Creating transparency through measurement processes (QA)
Reduction of errors and reject rates
Transfer from prototypes to series
Qualification of processes (DQ/IQ/OQ/PQ)
Examples
Measuring the strength of bondings
Testing based on the installation situation in the product
Embedding Nitinol in an adhesive
Determining the strength of different adhesives using statistical methods
Laboratory system for dip coating
Dipping a wire in solvent to deposit a plastic
