Plan B assembly/inspection Stamps
2008-10-09 by (i think you can figure that out)
In order to address some quality issues of late, Plan B has instituted a Assembly/Test stamp system which will provide identification of the persons involved in assembling and testing our modules. The stamps come in two flavors (square = assembly; circle = test/inspection) and can be identified as follows: EAR 1 (in a circle) : Peter Grenader EAR 2 (in a square) : Sam Hernandez EAR 3 (in a square) : Sergio Trejo EAR 4 (in a square) : Dylan Sang EAR 5 (in a square) : Katira EAR 6 (in a square) : Elias Angula Effective immediately here will be three stamps on every assembly - one on the PCB, signifying who built it, one on the back of the faceplate in a square signifying who did the final assembly and EAR 1 in a circle on the back of the faceplate as well signifying that I have tested the module. Please allow some time for these to work their way through the unmarked stores inventory at our dealers. Why is this important? Identifying the assembler will yield the same results as Matrixsynth when they stopped accepting anonymous postings it forces accountability for both the errors we make and they things we do well. It's our personal signature so to speak. I am confident that these watermarks will have a positive effect on both our workmanship standards and test yields. - P
