QUALITY

We don't claim quality. We measure it.

Every mold and every lot closes with an inspection record. The report we share with you is the same data we run production on.

01 / 08 INSPECTION

Measurement capabilities

  • Shop-floor gauging with height gauges, micrometers, calipers and gauges
  • Surface roughness (Ra)
  • First-article inspection (FAI) report
02 / 08 INCOMING CONTROL

Incoming material control

Each resin lot is received against the supplier's certificate of analysis (CoA) and linked to production records; drying time and temperature are logged for hygroscopic resins; tool steels arrive with mill certificates.

03 / 08 SAMPLE APPROVAL

T1/T2 sample approval

T1 samples ship with an inspection report and process parameter sheet. Deviations are corrected in the tool and approval is closed at T2. Approved parameters are locked; production runs to that golden sample and sheet.

04 / 08 PPAP / ISIR

PPAP / ISIR (indicative)

For customers who require it, we can prepare an ISIR and a PPAP-style submission; scope and level are agreed at project start.

05 / 08 TRACEABILITY

Traceability

Every shipping carton carries a lot label: part no., lot, production date, machine, mold no. and resin lot.

Records are retained.

06 / 08 CALIBRATION

Calibration

Measuring equipment is calibrated to an annual plan at accredited laboratories; status is tracked by a label on each instrument.

07 / 08 MOLD MAINTENANCE

Mold maintenance

Every mold has a shot counter and a preventive maintenance plan.

08 / 08 SAMPLE REPORT
