A model of quality control based on recycling economy and sustainable manufacture

People currently pay attention to a hotspot problem that how industrial production is evaluated and controlledbased on sustainable development theory. Quality is one of the important indexes. Two mainstream theories guide us torealize the industrial sustainable development: mainly the circular economy and sustainable manufacturing are introduced.The basic characteristics of the sustainable manufacturing are introduced, and that quality management is importantcontents of sustainable development is indicated. Based on circular economy and sustainable manufacture theories, thedrawbacks in the existing quality management models are analyzed. The requests that satisfy the big system “environ-ment – society – economy” are summarized to build up a model. A Chinese traditional cultural principle is applied andthe relevant contents are sublimated as the platform to set up the model. The new quality management concept models areput forward “T– D– R” three-dimensional structures and “ecological quality loop” model, from which the new qualityconcepts are formed. The paper elaborates the contents and the process of setting up the models. The big quality problemsof the system can be handled by the new quality concept and model that are validated in practice.
