Key Responsibilities
- Incoming Material Inspection (IQC)
- Inspect raw materials (fabric, foam, plastic components, metal frames) for consistency, color accuracy, and flaws.
- Verify the quality of critical mechanical parts such as gas cylinders (pneumatic lifts), casters, and tilt mechanisms.
- In-Process Quality Control (IPQC)
- Conduct regular floor audits to ensure assembly lines follow Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).
- Check for proper alignment of components, secure fastening of bolts/screws, and correct application of adhesives.
- Final Product Testing (FQC)
- Functional Checks: Test seat height adjustment, swivel rotation, backrest tilt/lock, and armrest maneuverability.
- Durability & Stability: Perform drop tests, stability tests (front and rear), and load-bearing assessments as per ANSI/BIFMA guidelines.
- Aesthetics: Inspect for surface imperfections like scratches on frames, uneven stitching on upholstery, or fabric tears.
- Documentation & Reporting
- Maintain detailed inspection logs, including photos of defects and pass/fail results for every batch.
- Raise Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs) and collaborate with production teams to identify root causes and implement corrective actions.
Required Skills & Qualifications
- Technical Skills: Proficiency in using precision measurement tools like calipers, micrometers, and gauges.
- Industry Knowledge: Familiarity with furniture-specific standards (e.g., ANSI/BIFMA or ISO 9001) is highly desirable.
- Attention to Detail: Ability to spot minor visual defects or mechanical inconsistencies that could impact long-term user safety.
- Physical Requirements: Ability to stand for long periods and occasionally lift/maneuver heavy office chair units (up to 25–35 kg).
- Education: Minimum high school diploma; a technical diploma or ITI in Mechanical/Industrial Engineering is preferred.
- Experience: 1–3 years of QC experience in a manufacturing environment, ideally in modular furniture or seating.
