What are the differences in the types of inspections offered?
There are basically three types of inspections: first-article, in-process, and pre-shipment. First-article inspections are conducted with the onset of initial production. An in-process inspection takes place on the assembly line, or during the manufacturing process and determines whether the appropriate tests and checks are taking place and whether the quality checks are consistent with the customer’s requirements. A final inspection is a final sampling of finished product to check that conformance is acceptable prior to shipment. Based on the outcome of a final inspection, a lot can be accepted, rejected, or placed on hold.

There are basically four types of inspections: Pre-Production, In-Production, Pre-Shipment and Loading Supervision. Pre-production inspection takes place at the beginning of the manufacturing to review the supplier readniess status and whether the quality of components and materials used in the production process. An in-production inspection takes place on the assembly line, or during the manufacturing process and determines whether the appropriate tests and checks are taking place and whether the quality checks are consistent with the customers requirements. A pre-shipment inspection is a final random sampling of finished product to check that conformance is acceptable prior to shipment,based on the outcome of pre-shipment inspection,a lot can be accepted, rejected,or placed on hold. The loading supervision is to make sure the correct products and quantity loaded into containers.
