Key Result Areas (KRAs)
R&D; & Current Product Quality Assurance (NPD)
* Verify prototype dimensions against 2D/3D engineering drawings before mass production release.
* Conduct first-article inspection (FAI) and tolerance stack-up verification on cartridges, diverters, aerators, and concealed valves.
* Define gauge design requirements and fitment limits for customized threads and mating parts.
Incoming Raw Material & Machining QA
* Inspect incoming brass forged components, cast bodies, stainless steel spouts, and rubber components (O-rings, washers) against dimensional standards.
* Ensure 100% compliance on thread fitment (go/no-go gauges) and sealing surface finishes to prevent water leakage.
In-Process & Final Inspection Controls
* Set up Quality Control Plans (QCP) and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for CNC, VMC, polishing, and assembly lines.
* Perform hydrostatic and pneumatic pressure testing setup validation to verify seal integrity under operational pressures.
Metrology & Calibration Management
* Maintain master calibration schedules for all measuring instruments, thread gauges, and pressure gauges.
* Perform Measurement System Analysis (MSA) and Gauge R&R; studies to ensure measurement reliability.
Defect Reduction & Root Cause Analysis
* Conduct root-cause analysis (8D / 5-Why) for assembly leaks, cross-threading, or dimensional mismatches on production lines.
* Coordinate with supplier quality teams to resolve dimensional variations in outsourced turned or molded components.
