Description
Course Objective
By learning the proper application of functional gaging and inspection techniques you will increase your production of quality parts. When you understand how to design and build your functional gaging and inspection processes along with the part design, you will be developing inspection criteria directly related to the part’s specific application. This means that when your parts are inspected, you can be sure that they will work.
Benefits
Eliminate arbitrary inspection practices. Inspection processes are often developed after the fact, and the parts are then judged by criteria loosely related to the part’s specific function. Thus, parts are passed that shouldn’t be, and others are rejected that would work.
Who should attend
Managers of engineering, quality control and inspection departments, design engineers, product engineers, mechanical engineers: If you are responsible for any aspect of the manufacturing process from design to inspection, you will benefit by attending. Discussions at the workshop will cover all inspection techniques currently available and show you when to use them.

Quality Technician, This course has been the most beneficial of any training I’ve received thus far! The instructor was amazing and made sure that each of the students truly understood the information presented. He was very educated on the subject matter and was very passionate about sharing this information with us! I have taken away information that will most definitely improve our quality along with saving a lot of money! I have recommended AGI for all of our company’s future training needs and I can’t wait to lean more from them!
