Gurus,

I have a very basic question,

When and where do we use inspection method? What extra value or steps it adds? could anybody please explain me with a real life example?

Thanks in advance!

Inspection method will actually tell you How to inspect a particular char/MIC

You can use inspection method directly in MIC or against the char in the task list

Example can be very simple like take example of welding char or MIC

say you want to add one MIC as welding dim1 in the task list.While creating mic you have added one method as welding.

In inspection method long test tou can maintain how to check this welding char

like

1.What should be temp

2.what should be visual things like burr etc

3.what should be the frequency

4.what is the test setup & its parameter

etc

I hope this will add some value

Hi Snigdho,

Inspection method is the procedure that is to be used while inspecting a material. For eg, you are going to measure temperature of material with a thermocouple. So you can document all the steps for this inspection in long text. so whenever someone is going to take temperature, he/she can refer to the method to follow, its kind of SOP that is followed on shop floor. You can attach multiple methods to one MIC, but you can attach only one method to MIC in the task list.
