Before products are put into inventory after final assembly, electronics manufacturing factories always perform quality inspections to ensure product quality. In terms of functional performance, most products go through 100% testing, so pass/fail decisions are usually very clear—unless there are intermittent functional issues. In those cases, it’s still relatively easy to identify good versus bad units. Cosmetic (appearance) judgments, however, are a very different story. Disputes happen all the time. How does your company deal with these situations?
