SORTS

Parts sorting is the process of categorizing products and organizing them so they can be conveniently located. Most parts sorting processes involve segregating different parts according to characteristics such as size, shape, function, name, or whichever other attributes are relevant. Parts sorting is also sometimes called parts segregating. Each different organization may need to sort products according to different characteristics.

At SMAB, we understand how critical the quality service for our customers is, WE aim to protect the two customers we will be attending when performing a sorting service, therefore, we specialize our high qualified inspectors in the different kind of sorts that our customers could require, this includes but is not limited to:

---

Attributes Inspection: Visual Inspections by using criteria defined by our customers.

SMAB could perform an GRR to ensure the process is effective.

---

Variables Inspection: Any measurement device required to perform a measurement and determine if parts are within or out of specification based on our customer tolerances provided.

SMAB could perform an GRR to ensure the process is effective.

---

Rework parts: based on approved methods, approved tools and further acceptance criteria SMAB will be able to perform this activity.

CS1 & CS2 Services

Controlled Shipping – Level 1 (CS1): There are two main levels of controlled shipping, and some customers also require a third level. These are highlighted throughout this page. CS1 requires the supplier to contain the suspect product and perform a redundant 100% inspection process. This process may be done by the supplier's employees, though some suppliers routinely employ an outside third-party inspection company to perform this service. SMAB has trained associates with experience in conducting controlled shipping projects.

Controlled Shipping – Level 2 (CS2): The second step of CS1 is to identify the root cause of the defect and incorporate irreversible corrective actions. The third step of CS1 is to verify via the above inspection process that the corrective actions are effective.

In CS2 the supplier is required to continue their in-house inspections as in CS1 and add an additional redundant inspection process performed by a third-party inspection and sorting company. This third party is often selected by the supplier, but usually must be approved by the customer.

The root cause analysis and irrevocable corrective actions begun in CS1 must be continued or redone until they are effective as verified by the data reported from the redundant inspection processes.

At SMAB we understand the importance of reporting out with accurate information and on real time, our system allows our clients see the information in real time and require any further data that helps to analyze.
