Maximizing output means eliminating damage to your product at every phase of its life cycle: in manufacturing, in transit and in the hands of end-users. If you don't know where the damage is taking place, how can you prevent it?
The solution is simple: The Shockwatch Clip pinpoints the problem, then prevents it
The clip is a precision impact detection device that, if a product bearing the clip is dropped or jarred with sufficient force, the liquid within the tube changes from clear to bright red, providing indisputable evidence that impact has occurred.
Normal handling won't activate it the clip, only the specific impact for which it was designed. It's unaffected by moisture or adverse temperatures, and once it turns red it cannot be reset.
The Shockwatch Clip is mounted directly on your product or its component parts. The clip goes wherever your product goes. If your product is mishandled the Clip will tell you exactly where, when and who mistreated your products. Just match the sensitivity of the clip to the amount of impact your product can withstand.
The Shockwatch clip gives you total control over your product's handling environment. Used as a tool to educate employees, carriers and customers, the clip reduces or even eliminates mishandling. The result is a more efficient production line, lower yield losses, increased customer satisfaction and fewer service calls.
Accountability Is the Key
If your products are handled 20 times before they reach your customer, that's 20 opportunities for damage to occur. Quickly and accurately, the Shockwatch clip identifies responsibility for losses, whether damage is caused by the materials handling process or by individuals.
How easy is trouble-shooting with the Shockwatch clip? If the clip is clear when your product is placed on a conveyor belt, for example, but turns red while an employee is carrying it to a workbench, you've found your problem.
Applications - Use the clip to protect:
- Calibrated devices or component parts
- Avionics instrumentation
- Sensitive computers or electronic equipment
- Medical equipment
- Audio-visual equipment
Why You Need the Shockwatch Clip
Reducing the overall cost of manufacturing without compromising customer satisfaction is a challenge you face in today's competitive business climate. The Shockwatch clip offers "Cradle to Grave" quality control that will maximize profits while ensuring that products perform to customer's expectations.
The clip protects at every phase of product life cycle
Incoming Component Parts:
Parts damaged in transit should never make it as far as your production line. The clip identifies damaged or de-calibrated parts while sparing the manpower required to inspect each and every incoming component.
The Manufacturing Cycle:
The use of totes, conveyor belts, forklifts, etc., contributes to damage. The clip does the trouble shooting for you.
Employees:
Use the clip to educate employees and promote more careful handling. With the clip, whoever comes in contact with your product is accountable for its condition.
In transit:
The clip protects your product wherever it goes. Should your packaging prove inadequate or your carriers mistreat your shipment, the clip keeps you informed.
In end-use:
Because the clip demonstrates your commitment to quality, the educated user will handle your product with greater care. Fewer service calls, more up-time and greater confidence in your company will result.
Warranty Control:
Eliminate abuse of your warranty policy. If the end-user activates the clip, the product should be inspected and, if damaged, repaired at the customer's expense.
