ZDQ (Mistake Proofing and Fail Safeing) is a process to insure 100% defect-free quality at the source….which means, 100% quality management on the process 100% of the time as the product is made. ZDQ is not sampling inspection after the fact, it is not 100% “clear and sort” inspection, it is not statistical process control (SPC), it’s much more effective than any of these.

ZDQ has 2 parts and 4 levels of Quality Control:

Level 1 Mistake Proofing = eliminating sources of product defects

Level 2 Mistake Proofing = preventing defects from being made

Level 3 Fail Safeing = detecting a defect as soon as it’s made (line stop)
