PPAPS, V Studies and other Quality Measures;
Hampel engages in Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP) techniques. APQP is a quality framework used for developing new products that can be applied to any industry. Embodied in Hampel’s APQP framework is a robust Production Part Approval Process (PPAP), which includes Design and Process FMEA's, Process Flow Diagrams, Gage R & R's, and Variability Process Capability Studies using our Coordinate Measuring Machine (pictured left). From these activities, Hampel develops a quality control plan for controlling the production process.
Lean Initiative
Hampel recognized long ago that in order to survive in today’s highly competitive global economy, non-valued added activities must be removed from its systems, procedures and processes. Thus began Hampel’s lean journey. All manufacturing cells are configured for continuous flow. Other tenants of lean, including 5S, value stream mapping and kanban are employed daily. Realizing that lean is a journey not a destination, Hampel continues to make improvements every day.
