Our
team has multiple tools at their disposal to ensure quality is produced
in everything we manufacture and purchase. Some of these tools are:
- An integrated network system that is password-protected to
ensures every process is properly completed before materials can
move to the next phase of production.
- Our systems provide full lot traceability in addition to real
time and historical production data for highly efficient problem
resolution and root cause analysis.
- A sophisticated bar coding and labeling system allows PSC to
control and track the movement of any item from receipt through
delivery.
- CMM provides technology to accurately check tooling and critical
parts. When linked to real-time SPC, the CMM provides essential
data to aid in the control of the production process.
- High-speed vision equipment is used to inspect our products
for items ranging from mixed stock to 100 percent dimensional
checks.
- State of the art Torque Tension Testing equipment capable of
processing parts up to M24.
- Our QC lab also includes industry leading equipment for hardness
testing, internal and external thread inspection, and push and
pull force testing equipment.
