Is it worth visiting the factory in China?

By I&R Group, Jiaxing. Reviewed October 3, 2026.

A visit helps for a large or complex order, where you want to see the production floor, meet the engineers and watch a similar machine run. For a standard machine, a video factory acceptance test and an inspection by a local team usually give the same confidence at a fraction of the cost. With our office in China, you get eyes on the factory whether or not you fly over.

• Worth it for large, complex or first-time orders.
• For standard machines, a video test plus local inspection is enough.
• Our team can be your eyes on the floor either way.
