Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1:
What raw materials and machinery are used during the initial die casting step?
The process utilizes ADC12 material and a 1250T aluminum die casting machine under a controlled furnace temperature of 670°±20°.
Q2:
What are the specific parameters required for the Air Tightness Testing step?
The testing requires a pressure value between 20kpa to 30kpa, a stabilized pressure holding duration of 20 seconds, a test time of 10 seconds, and leakage must be controlled within 0.3kpa.
Q3:
What precautions are taken during CNC machining to ensure quality?
Operators must prevent overcutting, ensure no steps are missed, protect surfaces from bruises and burrs, and verify that the surface finish reaches Ra0.8 alongside correct size and location tolerances.
Q4:
What is checked during the riveting and pressing of the D4.7 dowels?
Inspectors verify that the pins are installed without deviation or falling off, ensure there is no surface damage or bulging, and measure the final height dimension post-riveting.
Q5:
How is the quality of the powder spraying and coating verified?
The coating is inspected to ensure color consistency matching the sample, uniform powder thickness without accumulation of tumors or exposed bottom metal, and no dirt or scratches.
Q6:
What tools are utilized during FQC and OQC shipping inspections?
Both FQC and OQC inspections rely on calipers, projection equipment, needle gauges, tooth gauges, and thorough visual checks of the product appearance and outer packaging.
