Quality control for cardboard packaging

Kontrola kakovosti kartonske embalaže je ključnega pomena pri izdelavi polizdelkov in končni embalaži za doseganje kakovosti v skladu s standardi kupca in tržišča. Procesna kontrola, imenovana tudi samokontrola, omogoča izogibanje težavam in napakam ter reševanje težav v procesu izdelave. Osebe, zadolžene za kontrolo (kontrolorji procesov in izdelkov), izvedejo končno kontrolo. Na podlagi navodil za delo ocenijo, ali izdelek ustreza zahtevam kupca. Izdelek tako sprostijo za odpremo ali ga zavrnejo. Namen in cilj diplomskega dela je preučiti delovanje procesne in končne kontrole ter prikazati njeno uspešnost v podjetju kartonske embalaže od naročila, podrobneje tiska, izseka in lepljenja, do odpreme embalaže. Zavedati se je potrebno, da z ustrezno embalažo podaljšamo rok uporabnosti izdelka, izdelek zaščitimo pred zunanjimi vplivi in omogočimo transport. V teoretičnem delu so podana interna pravila in navodila podjetja, ki se nanašajo na procesno in končno kontrolo izdelka. Pri izdelavi kartonske embalaže je predstavljena vsa potrebna dokumentacija, ki sledi standardom in zahtevam kupcev. Eksperimentalni del prikaže samokontrolo operaterjev ter na primerih iz prakse proces končne kontrole do sproščanja embalaže h kupcu. Predviden rezultat dela je sistematičen prikaz vmesnih kontrol pri izdelavi kartonske embalaže s spremljanjem izdelkov v proizvodnji od tiska, izseka, lepljenja do končne kontrole. Prikaz kontrolnih točk in ukrepanje ob napakah je prikazano na praktičnem primeru embalaže.Quality control of cartonboard packaging is crucial in the production of semi-finished and finished packaging to achieve quality according to customer and market standards. Process control, also known as self-control, allows problems and errors in the manufacturing process to be avoided and solved. The persons in charge of control (process and product controllers) carry out the final control. They assess whether the product meets the customer\u27s requirements based on the instructions for the job. The product is then released for dispatch or rejected. The aim and objective of the thesis is to study the operation of process and final control and to demonstrate its performance in a carton packaging company from ordering, printing, die-cutting and gluing to the dispatch of the packaging. It is important to be aware that proper packaging extends the shelf life of the product, protects it from external influences and allows transport. The theoretical part gives the company\u27s internal rules and instructions relating to process and final product control. All the necessary documentation is presented for the production of cartonboard packaging, following the standards and customer requirements. The experimental part demonstrates the self-control of operators and the process of final control until the packaging is released to the customer, using practical examples. The intended outcome of the work is a systematic presentation of the intermediate controls in the production of cartonboard packaging, with the monitoring of the products in production from printing, die-cutting, gluing and final inspection. The demonstration of the checkpoints and the action to be taken in the event of defects is illustrated by a practical example of packaging
