Scope and component check
Confirm the main equipment, purchased components, drawings, and agreed interfaces against the approved list.
Project Quality
Copper Casting Equipment Quality and Acceptance Planning
Equipment checks, factory acceptance, commissioning, and trial-production criteria should be defined for the actual line scope. The contract and approved technical documents remain the final reference for each project.
Equipment Manufacturing Review
A project quality plan can define the checks required for critical components, fabrication, assembly, electrical controls, cooling circuits, moving mechanisms, and documentation. Exact inspection items and records are confirmed against the ordered equipment scope.
Fabrication and assembly check
Review project-defined dimensions, connections, alignment points, and workmanship before packing.
Control and functional check
Verify the agreed control functions, operating sequence, alarms, and interlocks that can be tested at the factory.
Utilities and document check
Confirm electrical, cooling-water, foundation, lifting, and site-interface information before shipment.
Factory Acceptance Plan
FAT scope should be agreed before manufacture is completed. Some checks can be completed as a dry run; hot trials or sample production are included only when the necessary material, utilities, equipment state, and contract scope allow them.
| Acceptance area | What may be reviewed | Agreement needed |
|---|---|---|
| Equipment completeness | Main assemblies, supplied components, labels, and interfaces | Approved equipment list |
| Electrical and control functions | Sequence, manual/automatic functions, alarms, and interlocks available for factory testing | Control description and FAT checklist |
| Cooling and utility circuits | Connections, leak checks, flow direction, and available operating checks | Utility conditions and test boundary |
| Mechanical movement | Withdrawal, lifting, lowering, coiling, or handling functions included in the ordered line | Speed/load/test conditions |
| Hot trial or sample | Process trial and sample criteria when expressly included | Material, utilities, method, and acceptance values |
| Documents and packing | Drawings, manuals, packing list, marks, and handover records | Document register and shipping scope |
Commissioning and Trial Production
- 01
Site readiness
Confirm foundation, lifting access, power, cooling water, piping, ventilation, raw material, and buyer-side staffing before the service team arrives.
- 02
Installation and cold checks
Complete the contracted installation scope, alignment, wiring, piping, lubrication, movement checks, alarms, and interlocks.
- 03
Hot commissioning
Establish the starting process window and adjust project-defined parameters under the agreed material and site conditions.
- 04
Trial production and training
Review agreed sample criteria, operating records, routine checks, shutdown steps, maintenance points, and operator handover.
Responsibility Boundary
Equipment supplier scope
Mivo is responsible for the equipment, documents, tests, site services, and handover items expressly included in the approved technical agreement and contract.
Buyer or third-party scope
Final material chemistry, conductivity, mechanical properties, metallography, production MTRs, and ongoing batch release normally remain with the copper producer or an agreed laboratory unless they are specifically included in Mivo's contract.
