Batching in many industries is an accepted practice, and many quality control/assurance personnel utilize automated systems to ensure quality control of their company’s products.
There are several benefits of batching production runs at a processing or manufacturing facility. Batching allows companies to both accurately control the product that goes out to their customers, and to ensure that their plant, machinery, inventory, and staffing needs are met in the most efficient way possible. Perhaps most importantly, in the event of a production mishap, batching allows companies to recall or redo only a small portion of a total production run that is affected by an accident, malfunctioning machine, or labor issue.
Batching Offers Quality Control for Food, Baking, Textiles, Apparel, Screen and Commercial Printing Industries
In the food, baking, textiles, apparel, screen and commercial printing industries, batching typically works as part of a system management package that is highly effective in quality control. If a defect or quality issue is found in a given production run, then only that batch will be redone. Providing quality control in the food, baking, textiles, apparel, or screen or commercial printing industries through batching is Matrix Controls a quality control company with over 50 years’ experience in providing batching and lot control solutions for companies across the U.S.
Through batching in the food and baking industries, if the FDA requires a recall, then only that batch of product is affect, not the production of the entire facility. In the commercial printing industry, batching ensures that if a production run of posters or books is cut incorrectly, that only the incorrectly cut batch will be thrown out rather than having to sort through multiple production runs to find any and all affected pieces. In much the same fashion, in the textiles industry, batching and quality control will limit production defects to only one lot rather than having a malfunctioning machine continue to produce a given item.
