Quality control
Three gates before anything ships
Certified to ISO 9001, IATF 16949, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001, and controlled from incoming material to the packed carton — with the reports to prove it.
- 4System certifications
- FAIOn every first article
- RoHSDeclarations on request
- 100%Shipment inspection
Control points
Incoming, in process, outgoing
Incoming material
Wire, bar and sheet are checked against the certificate of conformity, and the alloy is verified on the spectrometer before it is released to a machine.
In process
First-off approval at every setup, then dimensional checks at a fixed frequency. Critical dimensions are charted, not sampled by eye.
Outgoing
Final inspection on the finished part — dimensions, thread, plating thickness, appearance — then counted, packed and sealed.
Documentation
What ships with the parts
FAI report
First article inspection against the drawing: every dimension, criticals called out, with the deviations discussed before mass production.
Full-size inspection report
Batch-level dimensional record, traceable to the production lot.
Material and finish certificates
Mill certificates, plating thickness and salt-spray results, RoHS declarations.
PPAP documentation
On request for automotive programmes, with the control plan and process flow.
