Quality of the Product
Make sure that the slicing quality, end face alignment, burr, damage, etc. are all strictly maintained. Make sure the joint's adhesive tape doesn't adhere to only one layer; Make sure the arrangement is level and tidy;
Corrosion, cavities, folding, browning, grooving, edging, wrinkles, concave-convex, staggered layers, oil spots, black oil spots, bright lines, roll printing, etc. must all be absent from the surface.
Packing
Foreign objects, damage, pollution, wetness, shock, and static electricity must all be absent from the packing materials. For tracking management purposes, the product's batch number, manufacture date, quality standard, and other details should all be marked on the packaging at the same time.
Test
To make sure the products fulfill the necessary performance and quality standards, Test GNEE uses a range of detection techniques, including X-ray defect detection, X-ray diffraction, and ultrasonic flaw detection.
