Gaging

Functional gages are designed and built per part print and GD&T requirements. All significant and critical characteristics are included in the gage design.

Statistical Process Control (SPC)

Hatch utilizes Statistical Process Control (SPC) in real-time, which is used as a tool to control the production process.

Mistake Proofing

Poka Yoke, or Mistake Proofing, is implemented throughout the entire process. The effective use of vision systems, auto unload, proximity switches, pass through gates, mechanical verification and other Poka Yoke devices provides defect free product.

Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP)

Quality must be implemented into the design and manufacturing process. Potential quality concerns are identified through Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP). The cross functional APQP team implements corrective actions to prevent identified quality concerns.
