Quality Assurance

 

Quality Assurance

Quality is the buzzword at VIPL. Quality control begins from the raw cotton itself, which undergoes stringent checks. Each process is inspected at all stages to ensure that it adheres to the prescribed standards. VIPL’s quality policy is emphasized and brought to the notice of each and every employee. The quality policy’s ultimate motive is timely and consistent supply of high-quality goods to all the consumers. Strict quality standards, coupled with the constant desire for innovation and implementation of latest technology, have resulted in consistent progress. VIPL has successfully implemented 5'S' in the organization to achieve excellence and perfection in all the operations: Seiri - Sort (Clearing), Seiton - Set (Organising), Seiso - Shine (Cleaning), Seiketsu - Standard (Standardising) and Shitsuke - Sustain (Training & Discipline).

 

The mill's quality assurance laboratory is equipped with Uster HVI Spectrum, Uster AFIS Pro, and Uster Evenness Tester UT-5. The installation of state-of-the-art technologies present precise and accurate data on the raw material/in-process, and final product quality. VIPL's QA lab does build quality into the product by prediction, audit measures, and continuous monitoring operations.

The mill is increasing the business value by always delivering quality yarns that exceed the customers' expectations. Quality checks are performed daily at various stages by their quality assurance executives. Any abnormality will be rectified immediately by the relevant employee. The shop floor employees are empowered to stop the machines/processes before proceeding further to eliminate any chance of customers getting a defective product. Investments in sophisticated equipment sourced from world-renowned manufacturers such as Uster,Loepfe and Statex are an integral part of the factory's operational strategy, primarily to meet the desired requirements.

 

VIPL has established  in-process and final yarn quality standards, and this is also being communicated to shop floor executives for a effective implementation and follow-up. Online and offline testing of the process/product is being relevantly followed at each stage. Any discrepancies/deviations are reviewed/corrected before further moving to the next department at the mill. The results are converted into graphical representations for the analysis, and further considered from a quality and production perspective.
