INCOMING QUALITY INSPECTION

Our new inspection facility ensures all incoming products conform to specified requirements. Micro-Vu Non-contact Visual Inspection Devices automatically measure parts for industry standards or your specifications. Shore A/M Durometers measure hardness, a physical property of rubber materials. Measuring specific gravity quickly verifies the compound type.

PPAP DOCUMENTATION

The Production Part Approval Process specifies the requirements for a new or changed part. It identified any production process weaknesses and assures all design and engineering requirements are met. Documentation includes Failure Mode and Effects Analysis, Control Plan, Process Flow Diagram and Part Submission Warrant.

REGULATORY PRACTICES

New laws and regulations continuously impact the fluid power and rubber sealing industry. We review new directives to ensure worldwide product compliance. Some common regulatory requests are: Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive (ROHS); Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACh); Dodd Frank Conflict Minerals.

IMDS

International Material Data Systems allows indentification of parts or components that may contain hazardous or dangerous substances, like items specified by the RoHS or REACh directives. Our IMDS certification (#55580) is fully proficient in the setup and submittal of materials and components. Most submissions are through the auto industry’s PPAP, but standalone requests are honored.

ISO 9001 CERTIFIED

ISO 9001 Certification demonstrates our dedication to our customers and industry. The international quality system allows us to speak with customers on the same terms. Our focus on continuous improvement assures the most current “best practices,” including warehouse management, information services and delivery strategies. It even assures fair value to customers.
