Incoming inspection
- Inspect every imported chip lot: dimensions, electrode and surface condition, varistor voltage, leakage and sample surge tests.
- Inspect leads/terminals, solder, epoxy powder, thermal links and packing material against specifications.
- Accept, reject or quarantine lots; raise non-conformance reports and share data with QA for supplier action.
In-process inspection:
- Carry out patrol and stage inspections for soldering, coating, curing and marking.
- Check solder joints, lead alignment and pitch, coating thickness and coverage, cure, marking legibility.
- Stop the line or hold WIP when parameters go out of limits; elevate to Production and QA.
Final inspection and testing
- Ensure 100% electrical testing of varistor voltage (V1mA), leakage current and clamping voltage on auto-testers.
- Run lot-wise sample tests: 8/20 s surge, energy, dimensional and visual checks, solderability.
- Approve lot release; issue CoCs and test reports for customer shipments.
Test lab and equipment
- Run the QC lab: surge generator, varistor testers, LCR meters, ovens and measuring instruments.
- Keep equipment calibrated and verified daily; maintain test records and traceability from chip lot to finished lot.
Non-conforming material
- Control segregation, tagging and disposal of rejected material; run material review with QA and Production.
- Analyse rejection data by defect and stage; present Pareto charts in daily quality meetings
Team and training
- Guide and train the 1-2 QC team members; certify them on inspection standards and test equipment.
- Maintain inspection standards, limit samples and visual defect catalogues.
Qualifications and skills:
- B.E./B.Tech (mandatory); Six Sigma certification preferred.
- 6-7+ years in electronics manufacturing (process house) or electronic components, in inspection and testing.
- Hands-on electrical testing of components; MOV or surge protection testing preferred.
- Knowledge of sampling plans (AQL), 7 QC tools, SPC charts and inspection documentation.
- Experience running a test lab and calibration records.
- Firm on accept/reject decisions; clear communicator in English and Hindi.
