Direct answer
Inspect the characteristics that define a good pack, use measurable limits and ensure failed packs are identified, rejected and recorded. For sachets, confirm the result with representative product and packaging before altering several variables at once.
Likely causes
- The defect is defined subjectively in the sachets process.
- Sampling misses short recurring faults in the sachets process.
- The inspection cannot identify the right product in the sachets process.
- Reject confirmation is absent in the sachets process.
What should be checked first?
- Define measurable pass limits
- Choose the inspection point before control is lost
- Test known good and known bad samples
- Confirm product tracking through rejection
- Record rejects by reason
- Challenge sensor and data failure
- Audit retained samples and records
What should you compare before buying?
Compare the operating principle against the actual product, pack range, sustained good output, measurable quality limits, cleaning, changeover and site conditions. Use representative samples and agree what will be demonstrated during testing before delivery and after installation.
