Industrial Diamond Quality Control

Quality Control for Industrial Diamond Products

Quality control is built into the stages that affect the supplied product, from incoming material inspection and process monitoring to finished-product review, batch records, and shipment preparation.

Quality Control Overview

Quality Control Built Around Product Requirements

Our quality-control process covers incoming material review, production-stage monitoring, finished-product inspection, batch record management, and shipment preparation. The applicable checks depend on the product and the requirements defined for the order.

Product Requirements

Applicable checks are aligned with the product specification and order requirements.

Batch Information

Production, inspection, batch, and shipment records are maintained as connected information.

Buyer Review

Buyers can request confirmation of the documents available for the product under evaluation.

Process Overview

Our Quality Control Process

Quality checks are placed at the stages that influence the supplied material. The applicable inspection items depend on the product and order requirements.

Step 01

Incoming Material Inspection

Step 02

In-Process Monitoring

Step 03

Finished-Product Inspection

Step 04

Batch Review and Release

Step 05

Packaging and Shipment Verification

Stage 01

Incoming Material Inspection

Incoming diamond raw materials are sampled before release to production. Supplier quality is also evaluated as part of incoming material management.

Crystal form or particle appearance
Impurity content and initial particle-size screening
Strength, color, appearance, and batch identification
Optical microscope used to observe industrial diamond particle appearance
Optical microscopy supports particle appearance review during incoming and finished-product control.

Production equipment and test data support repeatable process control.

Stage 02

In-Process Quality Control

Production stages for diamond micron powder include crushing, ball milling, classification, and purification. Operators monitor defined process parameters at the applicable stages.

Samples are taken after classification to evaluate particle-size distribution and agglomeration. Material that falls outside the defined requirement is reprocessed and tested again. It is released only after meeting the applicable acceptance criteria.

Ball mills, air-jet crushers, and airflow shaping machines
Ultrasonic vibrating screens and automatic classification systems
Micron powder extraction centrifuges and drying equipment

Stage 03 and 04

Finished-Product Inspection and Batch Release

Finished-product inspection covers D50 and D90 particle-size distribution, impurity content, powder purity, dispersion, product specification, appearance, packaging integrity, and customer-specific requirements. Conforming product is released for packaging and shipment with the applicable batch test data.

Particle Size

D50 represents the particle size at which 50% of the measured distribution is below that value; D90 represents the size below which 90% of the measured distribution falls.

Appearance

Crystal form or particle appearance is reviewed during incoming and finished-product control.

Product and Packing

Packaging can be customized to meet specific customer requirements.

Testing Equipment and Methods

Equipment Used for Particle-Size and Appearance Review

Equipment used for particle-size and appearance review includes an OMEC LS-POP(9) laser particle-size analyzer, a Microtrac S3500 particle-size analyzer, and an optical microscope.

Batch Consistency and Traceability

Batch Records and Traceability

Our batch records connect the raw-material batch, production record, quality test result, batch number, and shipment record. These records support review of the production and inspection information associated with a supplied batch.

Stage 05

Packaging and Shipment Preparation

Packaging is completed according to the order requirements. Before shipment, the final review covers packaging integrity, labels, quantity or weight, batch number, and accompanying documents. Packaging and shipment records are maintained with the order history.

Documents

Quality Documents and Customer Support

Depending on the product and order requirements, available documents may include a product test report, Technical Data Sheet (TDS), Safety Data Sheet (SDS), and relevant quality certification documents. Document availability should be confirmed for the product under evaluation.

Nonconformance and Corrective Action

Quality Issue Handling and Corrective Action

When a quality issue is identified during production or reported by a customer, we record the product, batch number, issue description, application conditions, and customer feedback.

Nonconforming material is reprocessed where applicable and tested again. It is released only after it meets the applicable requirement. Corrective actions may also address the production process, inspection process, personnel training, or management requirements.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is checked before diamond raw materials enter production?

Incoming materials are sampled before release. Applicable inspection items include crystal form or particle appearance, impurity content, initial particle-size screening, strength, color, appearance, and batch identification.

How is particle size controlled during production?

Process parameters are monitored during crushing, ball milling, classification, and purification. Samples are taken after classification to review particle-size distribution and agglomeration before the material moves to the next stage.

What happens if an in-process sample does not meet the requirement?

The material is reprocessed and tested again. It is not released to the next production stage until it meets the applicable requirement.

What is included in finished-product inspection?

Depending on the product and order requirements, finished-product inspection may include D50 and D90 particle-size distribution, impurity content, powder purity, dispersion, product specification, appearance, packaging integrity, and customer-specific requirements.

What quality documents may be available?

Depending on the product and order requirements, available documents may include a product test report, TDS, SDS, and relevant quality certification documents.

How are quality issues investigated?

The review records the product, batch, issue description, application conditions, and customer feedback. Production records, test data, and raw-material information may then be reviewed to identify the cause and define actions.
