A. Key Responsibilities
1. In-Process Quality Inspection (WIP)
- Conduct roaming, random, and scheduled inspections across machining cells.
- Verify critical dimensions, cosmetic conditions, and process checkpoints on WIP parts.
- Ensure machinists follow job routers, process parameters, and inspection instructions.
- Stop production when any dimension or cosmetic requirement falls outside specification.
2. Incoming/Returned Parts from Secondary Processes
- Inspect parts returning from external secondary-process vendors (e.g., anodizing, plating, grinding, welding).
- This inspection is independent of the standard incoming inspection performed by the QC Incoming team.
- Perform policing checks through random or sampling inspection to catch defects before parts proceed to the next machining stage.
- Segregate suspect or damaged pieces and report immediately to the QC Supervisor.
3. Non-Conformance Reporting (NCR/CAR)
- Raise NCR for internal, supplier, or production-related non-conformities.
- Assist in issuing CAR to relevant departments when required.
- Provide clear evidence(photos, measurement readings, tags, traceability).
- Follow up on NCR status until closure.
4. Measurement and Documentation
- Use QC measurement tools (calipers, micrometers, height gauge, thread gauges, pin gauges).
- Record inspection results clearly and accurately in QC forms or digital systems.
- Ensure full traceability of inspected parts.
5. Shopfloor Quality Support
- Support machinists with clarifications of tolerances and quality requirements.
- Report abnormal trends such as repeated defects or setup issues to QC Supervisor.
- Assist QA team during FA/FAI verification when needed.
- Maintain cleanliness and proper handling of measurement tools.
D. Required Skills & Competencies
- Basic understanding of machining processes (turning, milling, EDM advantageous).
- Ability to read engineering drawings and interpret tolerances.
- Experience using standard QC measuring equipment.
- Able to identify defects such as out-of-spec dimensions, burrs, scratches, and surface damages.
- Capable of self-checking and working independently.
- Good communication skills with machinists, planners, QA/QC team.
E. Working Conditions
- 100% shopfloor presence during production hours.
- May require shift or overtime depending on production schedule.
- Must follow all safety and quality protocols.
F. KPIs / Performance Indicators
- Number of WIP inspections conducted per shift.
- Accuracy and completeness of inspection records.
- Timeliness and correctness of NCR/CAR raised.
- Reduction in repeated defects or escapes.
- Adherence to SOPs and quality standards.
