Quality of the final product

The quality of a final powdered product describes the extent to which it meets the defined requirements, specifications and expectations. It encompasses both measurable properties such as composition, homogeneity, physical characteristics and functionality, as well as application- or customer-specific criteria.

In process engineering, the quality of the end product is largely determined by the selection of raw materials, process control, and the design and operation of the equipment used. Particularly when processing powders and bulk materials, mixing quality, reproducibility, complete emptying, the prevention of cross-contamination and controlled process parameters directly influence the quality of the end product.
