A first-time gear manufacturer was facing a massive 90% rejection rate on their
production line. They were stuck. The importance of Critical to Quality parameters in
gear inspection such as Total Composite Error (TCE), OD Runout, Radial distance,
and Rolling were not properly addressed by the team. Each mistake led to more
rework, more delays, and growing financial losses. Unsure where to turn and
hesitant to invest in a solution they didn’t fully understand, they reached out to
CalibroMeasure.
The quality team at a renowned gearbox manufacturer was frustrated
and overwhelmed. Inconsistent gear quality from vendors, coupled with
error-prone manual roll testing, led to painfully high rejection rates. Day
after day, they watched financial losses helplessly. With no clear solution
in sight, the team had reluctantly accepted the issue as normal.
Here's why the team was losing confidence day by day
Lack of Inspection Knowledge:
They didn’t know about critical parameters like TCE and OD runout.
High Rejection Rates:
90% of their production was being rejected.
Hesitant to Invest:
They feared spending money on something uncertain.
Huge Financial Losses:
Every rejected batch added to their losses.
