Coordinate measurement
Plan datums, probe access and part support for spatial dimensions and feature relationships.
← SANHE homeQUALITY & INSPECTIONFrom drawing requirements
From drawing requirements
to inspection records
Connect datums, mating features and surface requirements with first-piece, in-process and final inspection.
INSPECTION THROUGH PRODUCTION
Keep the part and its records connected
Agree the features, methods and inspection records before production.
- 01
First-piece confirmation
Confirm the drawing revision, material identification, datum setup and critical features against the agreed inspection plan.
- 02
In-process checks
Check specified features at the agreed production stages and review changes in setup or part condition.
- 03
Final inspection & handover
Check the final dimensions, surface and edge condition, then connect results with part identification and delivery records.
Explore quality by topic
Choose the information needed for your supplier review.
Match the check to the feature
Choose a feature to see the inspection approach. The final method and sampling scope are confirmed for your drawing.
01Hole positions & datums
CONCEPT ILLUSTRATION · NOT A PART DRAWING
Do the locating features share the drawing references?
- Inspection approach
- CMM, vision measurement or dimensional gauges, selected for the drawing feature.
- Check focus
- Agree the datum references, hole sizes and position requirements.
- Records
- Drawing feature references and agreed dimensional records.
02Profiles, slots & thin walls
CONCEPT ILLUSTRATION · NOT A PART DRAWING
Does the measured shape reflect the intended part condition?
- Inspection approach
- Vision measurement and dimensional tools, with support conditions reviewed for thin walls.
- Check focus
- Agree measurement locations, slot layout and edge conditions.
- Records
- Profile or size records and the agreed inspection condition.
03Threads & mating interfaces
CONCEPT ILLUSTRATION · NOT A PART DRAWING
Are the thread specification and mating condition correct?
- Inspection approach
- Thread gauges and dimensional checks appropriate to the specified interface.
- Check focus
- Confirm thread type, gauge requirements and cleanliness at the interface.
- Records
- Thread specification and agreed gauge-check results.
04Surface texture & edges
CONCEPT ILLUSTRATION · NOT A PART DRAWING
Does the finished surface match the agreed condition?
- Inspection approach
- Surface roughness measurement where specified, plus visual checks for edges and appearance.
- Check focus
- Identify measured areas, cosmetic references and burr-removal requirements.
- Records
- Agreed roughness readings and appearance or edge-check records.
INSPECTION EQUIPMENT
Different checks with a clear purpose
Select measurement or testing around the drawing, part condition and project requirements.
Microscopic inspection
Examine small surface details, edges and local features at an appropriate magnification.
Salt spray testing
Agree sample condition, test conditions, duration and acceptance requirements for the project.
Temperature & humidity testing
Agree environmental conditions, exposure duration and the checks required after testing.
From a measured feature to a traceable record
Connect the part number, drawing revision, sample, instrument, measured result and review. Report content and sampling follow the project agreement.
