Save Money by Leak Testing Early in the RAC Production Process

Saving money in your production process is a task that is much easier said than done. One step to help you curb costs is to find and eliminate errors or scrap as early as possible in the value-added process.

The main benefits of component pretesting for high-end manufacturing companies, like yours are:

• increased product quality
  
• elimination of scrap parts before the product is refined
  
• decreased rework cost in the production process
  
• improved workflow

How expensive the final product actually is depends on the quality of each component, whether it comes from a supplier or is made at your facility. By simply leak testing components early in the production cycle, it is possible to prevent unnecessary costs and optimize your production process.

With just one decade less than the leak rate in the final testing, it's easy to identify and eliminate scrap at the beginning of the product refinement. Identifying scrap early in the process will give you greater confidence in the components and the end-product.
