Project phases:

 
Design
Strix is happy to share our expertise in Industrial Design whether it is a new design or conversion of an existing ID. Strix will provide the control selection recommendation depending on the project specifications.
 
Mock-up
Considering all the project specifications, we will provide the mock-up so as to optimise any new features and structures before tooling.
 
Review
We provide drawing review and issue an evaluation report to the customer.
 
Tooling
We provide the heating element compatibility test as well as performance reliability and endurance testing.
 
1st Off Tool
We evaluate CRF review test results made on our 1st Off sample and list corrective actions based on this output.

RAMP UP

R
 
Performance of our products is regulated by Strix Contract Review Form (CRF), which focuses on aspects that are critical to the safety of the appliance.
 
The CRF test establishes if the appliance is technically suitable for mass production.
 
Furthermore, Standard Operational Procedures (SOP) and Quality Standard Operational Procedures (QSOP) are implemented to support OEMs in controlling the assembly process and quality in order to ensure that the appliance can be made repeatedly.

PRODUCTION

 
We support our customers to increase efficiency, reliability and quality of their products and processes by also putting our Statistical Process Control (SPC) at their disposal.

FINAL APPROVAL

 
Appliances which have been designed in accordance with our designer packs and have passed Strix internal QM and CRF processes will obtain external approval certification.
 
Strix controls and connectors are "Approved Components" so submission of our certificates can reduce testing of appliances which would otherwise be normally required.
