1.0 PURPOSE

To ensure that all measurement and test equipments which are used to determine and monitor product quality are periodically inspected, always ready for use and the measurement/test results they deliver are as accurate as required.

To ensure proper procedure for machine preventive maintenance and breakdown maintenance to reduce machine down time.

2.0 SCOPE

This procedure applies to all personnel who are involved in the handling, usage, storage, maintenance and calibration of machines and equipments.

3.0 DEFINITION

Measuring equipments: Inspection, measuring and test equipment






4.0 PROCEDURE DETAILS 4.1 CALIBRATION

Process Flow Description Documents

/ Ref. Personnel

- Any purchase request for new measuring equipment shall obtain prior approval from Director. - Director shall verify to ensure the measuring equipment is suitable for use.

- Quotation

- Director

- Any new purchased measuring equipment shall be registered in the Equipment Calibration List. - Assign equipment number. - Determine that calibration or verification interval, calibrator (internal or external), measurement tolerance required. - For internal calibration, calibration instructions shall be prepared, and shall have traceable to international or national measurement standards.

- Equipment Calibration List (CS-F35)

- Production Manager

- The methods of handling, usage, maintenance and storage shall be determined in line with any applicable manufacturer’s recommendations:

• User shall check the measuring equipment working conditions before use.

• All measuring equipment shall be handled as per instructed by Production dept.

• Any malfunction or damage to the equipment used shall be reported to Director .

• After use, all measuring equipment shall be cleaned and stored in appropriate designated area to prevent misuse or loss.

- Ensure appropriate training is provided to equipment users to preserve the integrity of equipment for intended application, and no damage or loss of measurement precision.

- Operating Instruction

- User

- Recall measuring equipment for calibration when it is due.

- Equipment Calibration List (CS-F35)

Process Flow Description Documents / Ref.

Personnel

- For external calibration, arrange for proper packing and delivery to external calibrator. - External calibrator shall be a nationally accredited laboratory. - For internal calibration, calibration shall be conducted as per the defined calibration instructions by trained personnel. The calibration conditions shall be defined in the calibration instruction. - Generate internal calibration records accordingly.

- External Calibrator - Internal Calibration Instructions


- Upon receipt of calibration report, internal or external, verify the results to determine the acceptability of the equipment against measurement tolerance required. - Paste calibration sticker upon acceptance. - For equipment that is not use for verifying product and process conformance to quality requirements, indicates with a “FOR INDICATION ONLY” label. - For equipment which calibration setting can be adjusted, shall be appropriately protected against accidental tempering of the setting (e.g. stored under lock-up, or sealed at the setting).


- For acceptable calibrated equipment, release for use. - For unacceptable calibrated equipment, quarantine it and identify the remedy to either repair or replace the equipment.


- To re-inspect the affected product measured using the ‘out of calibration’ equipment. - The inspection results shall be recorded. - Determine further action.

• Scrap • Buy new equipment • Use as it with correction factor

defined.
