How do the factory control the mass production of furniture in Indonesia

Nowadays, there're many factories compete to dominate the market, that's what makes the factories try to maintain or even increase the quality of their furniture. PT.Herdex Sejahtera as one of the factory that produ ce furnitures, also try to do so. They do the quality control from the material (input), the process of furnitures making until the output/outcome of the furnitures.

The aims of PT.Herdex Sejahtera are:

- to produce furnitures that are standardize towards the factory's aims

- to produce furnitures that can fulfill consumer's need

- to produce furnitures that can compete with other furnitures

- to minimalize the production cost but to maintain the furnitures quality

There're 2 types of main materials that are used for producing. The first one that they use is wood that is called German Particle Board and the other one is Melamine Face Chipboard for laminating.

  

The steps that are used to maintain the furnitures quality:

1. Quality control of raw material

    This is the process of what they did to maintain the quality of raw material:

                i.            Supplier

             ii.            Quality Check

           iii.            Stored

            iv.            Produce

    If the materials are found to be bad when they do quality check then they'll return them to the supplier

2. Quality control in producing

    This is the process of what they did when producing:

                    i.            Raw Material

                  ii.            Robotic Machine

               iii.            Measurement Control

                iv.            Cutting

                   v.            Cutting Outcome Check

                vi.            Machine Edging ( Laminated)

              vii.            Laminating Quality Check

           viii.            Finish

     If the cutting outcome or laminating outcome are found bad then they'll reprocess them.

That's the result of my case study in Indonesia. I think the way they do for quality control are quite good and appropriate already because they control the quality from the raw material till the outcome.
