Define Specifications

Clearly outline the product requirements, including design, materials, dimensions, and any other relevant details. These specifications should be documented and communicated to the manufacturer to ensure that the pre-production sample aligns with your expectations.

Produce the Sample

Work with your manufacturer or design team to produce the pre-production sample based on the defined specifications. This sample serves as a prototype and allows you to evaluate the product's design, functionality, and quality before committing to full-scale production

Evaluate and Test

Rigorously assess the pre-production sample for compliance with your specifications. Conduct thorough testing for performance, durability, safety, and other relevant factors. Gather feedback from stakeholders and end-users if possible to identify any issues or areas for improvement.

Review and Revise

Based on the evaluation and testing results, make any necessary adjustments to the product design or specifications. This might involve revising materials, altering dimensions, or modifying manufacturing processes.

Approve for Production

Once the pre-production sample meets all requirements and passes all tests, give formal approval to proceed with full-scale production. Ensure that all necessary quality control measures are in place to maintain consistency and quality throughout the production run.

The pre-production sample is critical because it serves as a prototype to evaluate and refine product design before mass production begins. It helps identify and address potential issues in quality, functionality, and manufacturing processes, ensuring that the final product meets specifications and standards. By assessing the pre-production sample, companies can prevent costly errors and defects, ensuring a smoother production process and higher product quality.
