Equipment Description
The Suppository Stripping Machine is designed to efficiently remove suppositories from their molds with a focus on maintaining product integrity and minimizing defects. The machine features a stripping alignment reject logic audit trail to ensure compliance with quality standards.
Test Plan
| Test ID | Procedure | Acceptance Criteria | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| IQ-01 | Verify installation according to manufacturer specifications. | All components installed as per specifications. | Installation checklist signed off by technician. |
| IQ-02 | Check stripping alignment reject logic functionality. | Reject logic triggers on misalignment. | Audit trail report from machine. |
| IQ-03 | Perform a performance verification test. | Machine operates within defined parameters. | Test run results documentation. |
Detailed Test Cases
Test Case 1: Installation Verification
Procedure: Inspect all components for proper installation. Ensure that the machine is leveled and secured in place.
Acceptance Criteria: All components must be installed correctly and securely.
Evidence: Photographic documentation and signed installation checklist.
Test Case 2: Stripping Alignment Reject Logic Audit Trail
Procedure: Simulate misalignment and verify that the reject logic activates correctly.
Acceptance Criteria: The machine must reject any incorrectly aligned suppositories.
Evidence: Audit trail printout showing reject events.
Test Case 3: Performance Verification
Procedure: Run the machine with a defined batch of suppositories and monitor performance metrics.
Acceptance Criteria: All suppositories must be stripped correctly without defects.
Evidence: Batch processing report and performance metrics documentation.
Deviations
Any deviations from the acceptance criteria must be documented and assessed for impact on product quality. A corrective action plan must be developed and implemented as necessary.
