Hi all,
I apologize in advance if this is the wrong section.
We have parts that are outsourced to China to be manufactured and we found that these parts are coming in damage. These parts are around 3W"x3L"6H" and they have very thin wall features that are getting dented. I don't know if they are getting dented during shipping or if they are getting damaged in our stockroom when moving things around. I have asked the Vendor to double package and send pictures of the parts before they ship it out.
I was also thinking of putting packaging instructions on the drawings so that if we ever switched Vendors, they would know to be careful with the parts. Are there any industry standard notes that can be written on a engineering drawing that specifies the packaging instructions? Any other suggestions is also appreciated as I am going in blind on how to deal with this.
Thank you all.
