4. Quality Control & Testing
Q13: What is CLK's quality control system?

Tier 2 — Production Line QC: Self-inspection by operators on their own output; cross-inspection by downstream operators checking the previous process; specialized QC inspectors conducting randomized spot audits. Key inspection points: case closure tightness, zipper smoothness, button feedback mechanisms.
Tier 3 — Final Product Testing: Finished products are sampled by batch and sent to the professional testing center. Test data serves as both a product release condition and valuable input for continuous product design optimization.
