QUALITY ASSURANCE

Quality checks.
From materials to finished assemblies.

Incoming material checks and production inspections lead to continuity and pinout checks on every finished assembly, together with visual inspection and applicable dimensional checks.

PROCESS CONTROL

Quality control at each stage.

Shengxin combines automated production with operator inspection to support repeatable batch manufacturing. Checks begin with incoming materials and continue through production and finished-assembly inspection.

  1. 01

    Incoming materials

    Wire and components are checked against requirements. Connector insertion and withdrawal force is checked against the corresponding specification, using 5–15 samples per batch.

  2. 02

    First-piece inspection

    Before production, first-piece checks follow the product characteristics and agreed drawing or sample. Terminal crimp pull-out testing uses 5 samples per batch.

  3. 03

    In-process inspection

    Checks every two hours cover wire and component specifications, wire sequence and terminal pull force. A nonconforming result stops production; a new first-piece inspection must pass before production resumes.

  4. 04

    Finished-assembly inspection

    Every harness receives continuity and pinout checks, with visual and applicable dimensional inspection. Inspection reports accompany shipments.

ROUTINE FINISHED-ASSEMBLY CHECKS

Every finished assembly. Checked.

100%Continuity & Pinout Testing
  • Continuity: Checking the intended electrical connections.
  • Pinout: Checking connections against the specified wiring arrangement.
  • Visual inspection: Checking visible assembly condition and workmanship.
  • Dimensions: Checking applicable dimensions against the drawing, including specified branch lengths, take-off positions and protection placement.

ADDITIONAL PROJECT-SPECIFIC CHECKS

A closer look at connection quality.

Additional checks are selected according to the product, project requirements and applicable inspection plan. The methods shown do not imply that every check is performed on every assembly.

01 Magnified Terminal Inspection

Magnified viewing helps examine visible details of terminals and their connection areas for workmanship. It is separate from destructive cross-section analysis.

02 Crimp Cross-Section

A prepared terminal cross-section is examined for conductor distribution and crimp formation. Preparation is destructive, so this check applies to project samples.

03 Insertion & Withdrawal Force

Connector mating and unmating force is checked during incoming inspection against the corresponding specification. Terminal crimp pull-out testing uses a separate machine during pre-production first-piece confirmation.

04 Salt Spray Testing

Salt spray exposure evaluates corrosion resistance of specified metal terminals or connection components. Scope is set by the project requirements.

05 RoHS Screening

Screening checks a material sample for selected restricted elements. Instrument screening is preliminary and is not a complete RoHS compliance certification.

PROJECT REQUIREMENTS

Inspection matched to your specification.

Workmanship and acceptance criteria

Drawings, approved samples and applicable component specifications define the inspection requirements.

IPC/WHMA-A-620 sets out requirements and acceptance criteria for cable and wire harness assemblies. If your project specifies this standard, share the required revision and class so we can review the applicable criteria before production.

Material compliance requirements

RoHS- and REACH-related documentation and testing can be arranged according to project requirements. The applicable materials, testing scope and required reports are reviewed before confirmation.

BUYER FAQ

Questions about inspection.

When do electrical checks take place for products requiring finishing?

For products requiring adhesive dispensing, curing or heat shrinking, electrical checks take place before these operations. Any requirement for a further electrical check after finishing needs to be agreed during project review.

What is checked on every finished assembly?

Every finished assembly receives continuity, pinout and visual checks, together with applicable dimensional inspection. These routine checks do not mean that every possible electrical or destructive test is performed on every piece.

Are pull tests and cross-section checks performed on every piece?

No. Mechanical testing and crimp cross-section analysis are sampled or performed when specified for the project. Sectioning a terminal is destructive, so it is separate from routine checks on each finished assembly.

Can inspection follow our drawing or specified acceptance criteria?

Yes. Drawings, approved samples and applicable component specifications provide the reference. Share any additional criteria, sampling requirements and required revision so the scope can be reviewed before production.

Can we request inspection documents or material-compliance testing?

Inspection reports accompany shipments. Inspection equipment is calibrated periodically, and relevant records are available on request. Share any additional document or material-compliance requirements for review. Instrument screening alone does not constitute RoHS certification.
