Quality Assurance and Control (QA & QC)

Catch problems at the source, not at the customer.

The difference between quality assurance and a failed escape is time. A defect found during incoming inspection costs almost nothing. The same defect found in a warranty return costs orders of magnitude more, and a defect that reaches a patient or a safety-critical system costs more still. The inspection methods that close that gap are the ones that see problems early, completely, and consistently enough to act on them before they compound.

Industrial CT brings a different level of visibility to quality programs. Where conventional inspection methods sample surfaces, probe regions, or rely on operator judgment, CT produces a complete three-dimensional record of every internal and external feature in a part. Defects that are invisible to visual inspection, inaccessible to CMMs, and unresolved by 2D X-ray are documented and measurable. The record is digital, repeatable, and consistent across operators, shifts, and production sites.

There's considerable internal porosity inside this fiber-filled resin rod bearing. The voids around the threading could contribute to tear-out under high axial loads. These internal defects are invisible to most traditional inspection techniques.
QA and QC are non-negotiable for medical devices on which people’s lives depend, such as this pacemaker. Industrial CT allows for thorough inspection of its intricate PCB vias and lithium iodide battery.

The industries where QA/QC failures carry the highest cost are the ones where this visibility matters most.  Medical device manufacturers use CT to verify internal feature conformance and catch assembly defects before regulatory submission, building a documented quality record that supports FDA review without additional destructive test steps. Automotive suppliers use CT to inspect incoming components, verify first articles, and document internal quality for PPAP submissions that OEM quality standards require. Aerospace and defense teams run CT-based inspection on safety-critical components where the cost of an escape is a field failure in a system where field failures are not acceptable. Electronics, battery, and consumer packaged goods manufacturers use the same capability to catch process drift before it becomes a population problem.

Lumafield's platform connects inspection data to the quality system. Findings live in Voyager, where they can be compared against CAD, linked to process parameters, shared across sites, and carried into corrective action workflows without manual reformatting. The gap between what inspection finds and what the quality system acts on closes.

Process control and escape prevention

A single defective part is a quality event. A pattern of defective parts is a process problem. CT gives quality engineers the data to distinguish between them: void distributions, dimensional drift, and assembly variation are visible and measurable across production populations, not just in individual samples. Catching process drift at the inspection stage, before it propagates through a production run, is the difference between a corrective action and a recall.

Inspection at production scale

Sampling-based inspection misses defects by design. The alternative is 100% inspection at the throughput production actually demands, which conventional methods can't deliver without sacrificing coverage. Lumafield's platform covers both ends of that tradeoff: high-throughput automated CT for volume inspection of complex parts, and inline X-ray for pass/fail screening at production speed. Coverage scales with the inspection problem, not against it.

Audit-ready documentation

Quality systems run on records. CT produces a complete, digital, three-dimensional inspection record for every part scanned, one that can be compared against CAD, retrieved years later, shared with regulators, and linked to the process parameters that were in effect when the part was made. For medical devices under FDA oversight, automotive suppliers under OEM quality agreements, and aerospace manufacturers under AS9100 requirements, this is not a convenience: it is what compliance looks like.

What’s a Rich Text element?

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
