What is a Full Inspection?
Full inspection, also known as piece-by-piece product inspection or 100% product inspection, is a unique quality control process that helps ensure each product’s quality before shipping. Generally, Full Inspection focus on the workmanship and basic function of the products. DQC can also perform an on-site test according to the customer’s requirement.
By inspecting each product piece by piece, a full inspection is simply the safest way to ensure anearly 100% qualification rate and to spot any defect in your manufactured products. It helps to ensure that all quality control requirements of the products are met.
Important notes when you book a Full Inspection:
The final number of Man Day will be depending on the overall quantity of products. Our Team will advise you of the number of Man Day requested upon reception of your request.
A full inspection focuses on the workmanship and cannot verify full parameters against the specification (for example, dimension, drawing that may cover many dimensions. DQC normally only check the overall size/dimension and in very limited sample size).
Quality Control and Full Inspection in China
China is the world's largest manufacturer and is widely considered as the "world's factory". Besides leading brands worldwide, it also becomes more popular for small and medium-sized businesses to source products directly from China.
Many small and medium-sized business owners would place a small order quality which helps them determine if their business idea is viable and profitable. That being said, for small and medium-sized businesses, it can be challenging to maintain good quality control of the manufactured products in China. In many cases, they do not have the visibility of suppliers’ quality control process.
SO, WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF USING A FULL INSPECTION INCHINA?
If you are ordering a small quality product from China to test your product idea, the cost of full Inspection is reasonable and helps you ensure the quality of every single product.
With better product quality, you can assure you can validate your product idea fairly
You can potentially increase customer satisfaction, and reduce product returns.
You have a better understanding of the capability of your supplier and whether you can work with them in the long run.
IN WHAT OTHER SCENARIOS, YOU SHOULD BE CONSIDERING USING A FULL INSPECTION IN CHINA?
You produce high-value products. They have a lot of details and usually require attentive quality control. So, they are often inspected piece by piece according to your quality requirements.
Product safety is important to you. For example, you are selling infant products or brand products.
Top product quality is vital to your business and you do not tolerate defects.
You are notable to visit the factory. Thus, you cannot validate the factory's capability and quality control standards.

What is the difference between full inspection and otherproduct inspection services?
Full Inspection works by inspecting each product piece by piece by our inspector(s). Thus, a Full Inspection is the most thorough productinspection compared to an Initial Product Check, During Production Check, and Final Random Inspection. However, it can be more time-consuming and expensive than the others due to the volume of products to be inspected.
If you want to make sure every piece of your product is produced according to your quality requirements, Full Inspection is a good choice.
It is often the way to ensure that high-quality products are produced and shipped. In many cases, it helps our clients avoid costly and time-consuming rework or scrapping of the entire product batch.
