Quality Control Standards
The full component-level defect classification table our QC teams train against — every production step, every material type.
- What it is
- A 3-page table of our quality control (QC) standards: how we classify defects and what we accept.
- Who it's for
- Publishers who want to know how we judge quality before and during production.
- What's inside
- Three defect levels (critical, major and minor) with acceptance limits under AQL (acceptable quality limit) General Inspection Level 2, then component-level defects by production step and material type.
- How to use it
