| Closed Quality Assurance Loop System |
| |
Advansus' Closed Quality Assurance Loop system consists of three parts: Design Quality Assurance (DQA), Manufacturing Quality Assurance (MQA), and Customer Quality Assurance (CQA). Closed loop quality control extends from an internal loop in DQA, up to the overall external loop from CQA, to MQA and/or DQA. This system provides constant feedback on design and manufacturing quality as well as reliability and stability of all Advansus products.
|
| Design Quality Assurance (DQA) |
| |
DQA mainly covers the New Product Development Process (NPDP) to ensure quality is designed-in by Quality Engineers (QE) for reliability; this includes operating system and hardware compatibility testing. The Quality Assurance Laboratory (QA Lab) is for safety and environmental tests, and meets the requirements of CE/UL/CCC standards. Tests conducted by our in-house QA Lab include EMI (Electromagnetic Interference), ESD (Electrostatic Discharge), EFT (Electricity Fast Transient), Surge, Conducted Susceptibility, Power Frequency, Magnetic Field, Voltage DIPS & Interrupts, Safety, Temperature & Humidity, Vibration, Drop testing, and others.

| Manufacturing Quality Assurance (MQA) |
| |
MQA's activities are centered on our factory manufacturing process and are executed by the Quality Control (QC) department. Advansus has developed a Total Quality Control (TQC) procedure for mass production. From IQC and IPQC to FQC, and from assembly to system integration, each individual product has its own standard quality control guidelines. Extended static and dynamic burn-in test procedures are involved to screen potential quality problems. Periodic training, auditing and facility calibration are strictly implemented to make sure all quality standards are followed to the letter. QC constantly feeds quality related issues to R&D for improved product performance and compatibility. |
| Customer Quality Assurance (CQA) |
| |
CQA consists of both technical support and repair services. These are important windows to service our customers' needs, receive customer feedback, and then act with R&D in order to improve the service.
|
| Ongoing Quality Assurance and Root Cause Analysis |
| |
The best time to stop a problem is before it gets into the field. Through our Quality Assurance program, we can reduce your failure rate by identifying and segregating items which have changed or have known issues. Should a problem occur we do our best to come up with a root failure cause for the component. We work with our suppliers and internally ensure the highest quality product leaves our facility. |
