First Article Inspection

The FAI process is crucial for ensuring that initial production processes meet design specifications and customer requirements.

High QA automates FAI reporting by integrating measurement results, drawing requirements, and component function into a single, traceable report.

With pre-installed templates for ISO and AS compliance (including AS9102), manufacturers can quickly generate detailed FAI reports while reducing manual labour and handling errors.

High QA's FAI reporting process helps ensure proper documentation and streamlines workflows, enabling manufacturers to meet quality requirements and expedite production start validation.

Streamline the FAI Process

With High QA, the FAI process is simplified in a few effective steps:

• Create balloon drawings: 
  Automatically generate balloon drawings from CAD models to link design specifications with inspection data.
  
  
• Data collection:
  Use High QA's data collection tools or import data directly from CMMs, digital gauges, or manual entries.
  
  
• Generate reports:
  Select AS9102-compliant templates to create documentation like a part report
  (form 1), material and process certification (form 2), and dimensional results (form 3).
  
  
• Customise as needed:
  Adjust templates to include additional customer-specific requirements.
