I must do a time-table of APQP,but I am so puzzle of it,I do not know wheather I can omit the stage to produce sample.we only have do one sampe to confirm our product-tech.

The Pupose of APQP System is to establish and maintain a system for carrying out Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP) and to define and establish the steps required assuring that the requirement of quality is met for development of New Products.

In Hindalco Alooy Wheel Rim Plant, We do APQP in the following phase.
Phase – I Planning & Defining the program
Phase – II Product Design & Development
Phase – III Process Design & Development
Phase – IV Product & Process Validation
Phase – V Feed Back Assessment & Corrective Actions.

Since we need a Die (Mould) to produce wheel Rim, we can not order and produce a die ($10000) without firm order of Customer.
Hence To Produce Sample before Acceptence is not necessary in APQP.

Hi sunwen, welcome to the Cove. If you are planning to make a sample to confiirm your product-tech, I would include it in the time line.

If you follow the APQP Manual, you should have no problems but if you have specific questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Hi Dave,thanks for you replay,you mean although we do not need provide the sample,but we can look the process of producing the sample to confirm our product-tech as that process and put it in the time-table? :biglaugh:
