Quality Assurance

Quality Control & Testing

Quality consistency is built through controlled inspection at critical stages of production, not at the end of the process.

Incoming material inspection for steel shafts
Step 01

Incoming Material Inspection

Before machining begins, all raw materials are checked to ensure they meet specified material grades and basic dimensional requirements.

Material inspection records are maintained to support traceability and consistent batch quality.

Step 02

In-process Dimensional Control

Key dimensions are inspected during machining rather than waiting for final inspection. This approach allows deviations to be corrected early.

Critical diameters, lengths, and stepped features are monitored based on product requirements.

Step 03

Concentricity & Runout Inspection

For rotating shafts, concentricity and runout directly affect vibration, noise, and service life. Inspection is carried out on functional surfaces.

This control is especially important for motor shafts and precision assemblies.

Step 04

Heat Treatment Quality Control

Heat treatment is controlled to achieve required mechanical properties while minimizing distortion. Hardness and straightness are verified after treatment.

Process stability is prioritized over maximum hardness values.

Step 05

Surface Finish & Visual Inspection

Functional surfaces such as bearing seats and sealing areas are checked for surface condition and finish quality before packaging.

Surface requirements are controlled according to application needs.

Step 06

Final Inspection & Traceability

Before shipment, finished shafts undergo final inspection to confirm dimensional conformity. Batch records are maintained for traceability.

Packaging is checked to ensure products arrive in proper condition.

Final inspection of finished precision shafts

Inspection scope and documentation can be adjusted based on application criticality and customer requirements.

Traceability

Batch Traceability (Lot-Based Control)

Batch traceability ensures that each production lot can be identified, reviewed, and explained if quality issues occur.

Step 01

Lot Identification from Raw Material

Raw materials are managed by production lot rather than mixed inventory. Each lot is identified before machining begins, forming the starting point for downstream traceability.

This allows material-related issues to be isolated without affecting unrelated batches.

Documentation

Material & Process Records

Material and process records provide a factual basis to explain how each production lot was manufactured.

Material test certificate for steel plate

Raw Material Records

Material grade and source are documented and linked to the production lot. This ensures material-related questions can be reviewed without ambiguity.

Heat treatment process curve documentation

Heat Treatment Records

Hardness results and treatment conditions are documented after completion. These records help explain mechanical performance and dimensional stability.

Metal surface finishing process

Surface Treatment Records

Treatment type and production batch are clearly identified. This supports consistency review for appearance and surface performance.

Special process control documentation

Special Process Records

Key process steps are recorded to ensure repeatability in future production. This helps maintain consistency for long-term supply programs.

Manufacturing traceability system

Records Linked to Production Lots

All records are linked to defined production lots rather than individual parts. Lot-based records support faster investigation when issues occur.

Quality Records

Inspection & Measurement Records

Inspection and measurement records provide objective data to verify product conformity and support quality review at the batch level.

Production Planning

Delivery & Order Volume

Production planning and delivery timelines are defined based on order volume, product complexity, and long-term supply stability.

Precision shaft production and quality packaging
Batch Production Ready

Stable Supply Capacity

Consistent batch production for long-term programs

Sample & Initial Orders

Prototype and initial sample orders follow a controlled production schedule to ensure dimensional accuracy and process validation.

30–40 days typical

Production Volume & Batch Planning

Monthly production is planned based on confirmed orders and rolling forecasts. Typical output supports stable batch production rather than sporadic one-off orders.

Stable batch capacity

How We Define Order Size

Order quantity is evaluated based on product type, process setup, and production efficiency. For new projects, smaller trial batches are supported. For ongoing supply, order quantities are optimized for cost stability and quality consistency.

Long-term Supply Focus

Featured

We work with a limited number of customers to ensure focused production planning and stable delivery performance. This approach allows better capacity allocation and consistent quality over time.
