Tight prints don't get held by intuition. They get held by datums, probing, and a calibrated inspection plan documented before the first chip flies.
Send your print for reviewCertification roadmap
Our QMS is built to AS9100D and ISO 13485 process requirements right now — documented, calibrated, and operating. Formal certification is on the schedule below. Until the certificate arrives, our quality manual, calibration log, and FAI samples are open for any buyer audit.
Controlled-document workflow, revision tracking, calibration log, training records, and corrective-action procedure all running today.
✓ COMPLETE
Process-level internal audits run against AS9100D / ISO 9001 / ISO 13485 requirement clauses, with non-conformance closure tracking.
✓ IN PROGRESS
Documentation review by accredited registrar — AS9100D + ISO 9001:2015. Schedule confirmation available on RFQ.
SCHEDULED
On-site implementation audit and certificate issuance. AS9100D + ISO 9001:2015. ISO 13485 follows for medical work.
PLANNED
Inspection floor
Every gage in the lab is calibrated on a controlled interval and traceable to NIST. Calibration records are open to buyer audit on request.
Sub-micron measurement with temperature compensation. Flexible probing for complex geometry and tapered features.
Image-dimension measurement system — high-throughput dimensional checks on small/medium parts.
Optical comparator for profile, threads, and 2D feature verification.
Digital height gage for repeatable Z-axis measurement at the machine.
In-machine work + tool probing on UMC and VF-4SS — catches drift between operations.
Ra / Rz verification for medical and aerospace surface-finish callouts.
Gage blocks, micrometers, calipers, indicators — calibrated and traceable to NIST.
Rockwell hardness and positive-material-ID through accredited sub-tier when required.
Inspection plan
Before we cut, an engineer reviews GD&T, picks the datum scheme, and writes the inspection plan.
Every feature on the print measured. AS9102 format on aerospace work. CMM data archived to the job.
Probing on critical features mid-run, sampled CMM at intervals, 100% verification on flight-critical or implant work.
Documentation that ships with the part
Every order ships with the appropriate combination of these documents based on industry and your quality flow-down. Redacted samples available on request.

Request the manualApproved sub-tier processing
For heat treat, NDT, plating, anodize, passivation, and coating, we partner with accredited sub-tier shops. Their process certs flow with your shipment, so you have one supplier of record — us — with documented chain-of-custody for every special process.
Sub-tier accreditations we flow down: NADCAP heat treat · NADCAP NDT · ISO 17025 calibration · AS9100 plating & coating · MIL-STD finishes (MIL-DTL-5541, MIL-A-8625, AMS-2700).
Aging, solution, stress relief on PH stainless and titanium. NADCAP-accredited partner.
Liquid penetrant, magnetic particle, ultrasonic. NADCAP-accredited partner.
Type II / III anodize, MIL-DTL-5541 chem film, hard coat. AS9100 partner.
Nickel, gold, silver, electroless — for aerospace and electronics.
AMS-2700 / ASTM A967 stainless passivation. Medical and aerospace.
ISO/IEC 17025-accredited lab, NIST-traceable. Annual gage cycle.
Open audit policy
Supplier qualification audits are welcome. We provide the quality manual, calibration records, training records, and process documentation up front so your team can show up prepared.
Quality FAQ
We are not yet certified. We operate to a quality system aligned with these standards today — controlled documents, validated processes, calibration tracking, FAI, traceability, and audit-ready job history — and our certification roadmap is published on this page. Until certificate issuance, our QMS manual and calibration records are open for any buyer audit.
