Why WELLMAX Deserve the Honor of Truly High-quality LED Supplier
Though past few years’ economic downturns had disparate effects on businesses, the LED industry in general faced one of the toughest challenges. To survive, many companies choose to cut corners during raw material sourcing or manufacturing as an desperate respond to the increasingly tough price-cut demand from oversea buyers. This has led to more frequent quality problems. As a result, buyers found themselves face more challenges in managing quality and in choosing a reliable supplier. How to resolve these inter-related problems? Shanghai WELLMAX Lighting can give you the answer.
Known as the “LED BULB EXPERT”, WELLMAX has over 35 years of global business experience in the lighting industry. Among many values, quality is at the core of its business. “From the lab to production lines to clients’ stores, we care about our lights every step of the way.” This is what Jie Yang, WELLMAX QC manager, stressed in an interview. Actions speak louder than words. Jie Yang then dissected what WELLMAX has done to ensure the quality of all its products – the secret behind how WELLMAX can win a good reputation and become a trustworthy brand in the industry.
Systematic Quality Control Process
As a leading global supplier of LED lighting products, WELLMAX has one of the strictest and scientific procedures in place to ensure quality. Its quality control system includes four sections: Supplier Quality Control (SQC), Incoming Quality Control (IQC), In Process Quality Control (IPQC), and Final Quality Control (FQC). From SQC to FQC, rigid inspections are conducted on supplier qualifications, incoming raw material standardization, production line, product performance, and packaging. In WELLMAX, all products need to pass a check-list according to IEC standards before manufacturing to ensure their reliability. All finished lights undergo a minimum 45-minute aging test, 24 hours test in UL-BOX (50 ℃), 24-hour test in UL-BOX (50℃), and drop test along with inspections on packaging and loading process.
Strict Inspection throughout Production Line
WELLMAX values the standardization of the production process. Over 50 criteria must be checked-off by its QC team on-site to minimize the risk of having defective goods. For example, in the first half of 2022 when the WELLMAX team inspected a batch of finished LED panels, some panels had issues with poor appearance on the edges. Although facing a tight lead-time, the WELLMAX team was dedicated to resolving this problem rather than letting it go. The team inspected the entire production process, systematically recorded areas for improvements, and formed an executable guidebook. Through quick on-site workers training and implementation, the pass rate of finished products from the particular production line became 100%.
Constant Improvement to Pursue Excellence
“There is no best, only better.” Jie Yang said, “That is why we continuously upgrade our products. Quality is at the heart of everything we do, and it all starts from our biggest priority: our clients.” In WELLMAX, the teams attach great importance to the feedback from clients. In the first half of this year, one client collaborating with us on SKD feedbacked that they encountered problems during product assembly. Upon receiving this information, the WELLMAX SKD team, together with the QC team, first re-examined the instruction manual to confirm the client’s operation procedure was accurate. The QC team worked around the clock to test and analyze the product line again and communicated with client via video calls. They finally found that a proportion of the product require some extra checks on the assembly line before moving to the next stage. In the end, the WELLMAX team and the client’s team, although separated thousands of miles apart, worked together to optimize inspection to avoid such problems in the future.
Every year, WELLMAX works with companies and institutions such as SAMSUNG, SGS, and DEKRA on R&D and quality testing. Overall, a company like WELLMAX with its rich industry experience, first-class laboratory, professional QC team, and spirit of pursuing excellence is definitely a trustworthy partner in the market of LED products. Moreover, with a client portfolio from more than 100 countries, WELLMAX can meet different countries’ requirements and provide oversea clients with the most suited product solutions, helping them to scale their business and establish a long-term reputation.
