Quality Control

Comprehensive Inspection Process

Every bearing passes through multiple checkpoints — from incoming raw materials to final packaging — ensuring zero-defect delivery.

📦

Incoming Material Inspection

IQC IQC · Incoming Inspectionmiddot; Raw Material Inspection

All raw materials — steel, rubber compounds, lubricants — are tested for composition, hardness, and dimensional accuracy before entering production.

⚙️

In-Process Inspection

IPQC IPQC · In-Process QCmiddot; In-Process Check

Operators and QC inspectors monitor critical dimensions, surface finish, and assembly parameters at every manufacturing stage in real time.

✅

Final Inspection

FQC FQC · Final Inspectionmiddot; Final Quality Check

100% dimensional check, visual inspection, and functional testing on finished products before they are approved for shipping.
