For most manufacturers, achieving optimal manufacturing efficiencies while maintaining high product quality is the goal; but often a choice is made to err on the side of overfulfilling on their promises, even if it means accepting extra costs. While overfilling can reduce the Cost of Poor Quality (COPQ) by preventing underweight or under-count product from being delivered to customers, it comes at the cost of manufacturing efficiency.
Relying on overfilling is especially common for manufacturers that do not inspect every package but
instead rely on random or intermittent inspections and Statistical Process
Control (SPC) to reduce the risk of shipping underweight or under-count

Did you know the cost of one defective product is 15X to 18X the cost of the product*
The hidden costs of quality can be up to 15-25% of total costs.*
100% Product Inspection not only reduces overfills but can also eliminate missing pieces from products.
Hardy Caseweighers make it fast and easy to detect missing components or overfilled cases reducing customer complaints
