Ensure the highest quality standards of your products with a digital material inspection.
Trusted by companies all over the world
Before FAT FINGER
High defects
Defects can often only be identified during a thorough inspection, which can add additional stage to the manufacturing process
Production delays
Extensive monitoring that manual inspection requires can cause delays in production which increases manufacturing cost
Lack of traceability
Operations reliant on manual monitoring do not have access to centralized data making it hard to understand performance, compare KPIs, and benchmarking.
Achieve zero defects in no time
With our revolutionary workflow, materials can be inspected quickly and accurately with less reliance on manual labor. Defects can be identified early in the production process before they become too costly. Drag-and-drop digital SOPs, audit processes and inspection checklists with ease.

Guide to Material Inspections
Here are few key things to keep in mind when it comes to material inspection.
1.Ensure that the material is suitable for the intended purpose.
If it’s being used in a critical application, you’ll want to ensure that it meets all of the relevant safety and quality standards.
2. Know what to look for when inspecting materials.
There are a few key indicators of material quality, such as density, surface finish, and dimensional accuracy.
3. Make sure that the material meets all of the necessary quality requirements.
This includes checking for defects, impurities, functionality, and more.
4.Consider the benefits of using the material in question.
Is it more cost-effective than other options? Is it more durable? Is it easier to work with?
Material Inspection Tagging System
The material inspection tagging system allows inspectors to quickly and easily identify which materials meet the acceptance criteria specified in the purchase order. By assessing a material utilizing these criteria, three possible results can be indicated:
1.Acceptable
Once the material is inspected and found to meet the necessary quality standards, it can be tagged as accepted and used in manufacturing.
2.Rejected
Materials classified as “rejected” do not meet all requirements and cannot be used. Rejected materials must be appropriately tagged and removed from the manufacturing process to prevent any issues with the final product.
3.Conditional
This means that they do not meet all of the requirements but can be used if they are correctly modified or will not affect the final product quality.
The identification tagging system is a vital inspetion control tool that helps to ensure that materials meet the quality specified in the purchase order.
Inspection done right – the first time.
Effective Digital Material Inspection Checklist
A few different aspects should be included in a material inspection checklist.
1.There should be a check for the manufacturing date.
2.There should be a check for any damage that may have occurred during shipping or storage.
3.There should be a check for the material’s overall quality. This includes reviews for size, shape, surface finish, and material properties.
It’s hard to keep track of all the materials that come into your factory and even harder to know which ones are ready for production.
