在铸件上，什么是Initial sample呢？

前段时间公司发了一个文档，里面关于Initial sample有下述的一段话，可什么是Initial sample，到现在为止依然是一头雾水，不知道大家的看法是什么？在铸造领域，这个Initial sample是什么呢？ Initial sample testing Before volume shipment, the first sample must be inspected in accordance with the specification and the results documented in a test report. The test consists of checking the dimensions, material and functioning of the initial sample in accordance with all the parameters specified. The dossier on the initial sample test to be supplied to the customer must be labeled separately.
