Apple Watch is extremely difficult to manufacture, over 70% of the units produced are defective

Apple Watch production problems

  Apple Watch it has been in production for some time at Apple's partners, Quanta and Foxconn, and the first information regarding the evolution of the process suggests that the device generates numerous problems for the two companies. In this idea, those from Quanta concluded a partnership with Foxconn to lend 3000 employees who will have the role of increasing the production capacity of the former. The measure comes after the problems generated by the production of the Apple Watch, less than 30% of the units manufactured there being free of defects, this being a problem major for a company that has a strict deadline to deliver the first units of Apple watches.

According to an earlier report, due to the negotiation between Apple, Quanta Computer, and Foxconn, Quanta cooperated with Foxconn in borrowing 3,000 workers for manufacturing Apple Watch, but Foxconn and Quanta withheld comment on it. It's widely circulated that currently the defect-free rate of Quanta is below 30 percent.

  Any new product has problems with the initial number of units produced without defects, but what is happening at Quanta demonstrates how complicated the Apple Watch is to produce. In general, the rate of products with defects is less than one third in most cases, but at Quanta things are the other way around, the rate of products without defects being less than one third of the total production. Given these problems of the Asian company, it remains to be seen how many units of the watch Apple will have available for Apple Watch launch on April 24.

  Initially it was said that only Quanta will manufacture Apple Watches for the Apple company, but in the end Foxconn is needed again to "save the situation".
