AutofabX: Comprehensive Quality Inspection and Certification

At AutofabX, quality is more than just a promise—it's a practice videoded in every aspect of our manufacturing processes. We pride ourselves on our rigorous quality inspection standards, backed by industry-leading certifications, to deliver superior products that exceed our customers' expectations. From CNC machining to advanced 3D printing technologies, our quality assurance protocols are designed to meet the diverse needs of modern industries, ensuring consistent performance and reliability.

CNC Quality Control Standards

Our CNC parts undergo a meticulous inspection process to ensure that every product meets the required quality standards. Key elements of our CNC quality control include:

  • Sampling Inspections: For batch and small-batch orders, we use the AQL 2.5 standard to determine the sampling quantity for dimensional and functional inspections.

  • 100% Visual Inspection: Every CNC product undergoes a full visual inspection to ensure that materials, shapes, contours, and surface treatments are consistent with drawings and technical specifications. Defects such as scratches, cracks, rust, or contamination are not accepted.

  • Dimensional Inspection: We perform dimensional checks based on 2D drawings or, if unavailable, in accordance with ISO-2768-mk tolerance standards. This includes measuring key parameters such as length, width, height, and all specified tolerances.

  • Precision Measurement: For high-precision parts, we provide CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine) scanning to verify critical dimensions, with measurement reports available upon request.

  • Functionality Testing: Functional tests, such as air-tightness and balance tests, are conducted as per customer specifications to ensure that each part performs as intended.

3D Printing Quality Control Standards

For our 3D printing processes, we employ stringent quality control measures to guarantee that every part produced meets exacting standards of accuracy and quality. Highlights of our 3D printing quality control include:

  • Layer-by-Layer Inspection: During the printing process, each layer is monitored for accuracy, ensuring that the final product adheres to the required specifications.

  • Material Verification: We offer a wide variety of materials, and each material batch undergoes verification to ensure consistency in composition and performance.

  • Post-Processing Evaluation: Once printed, parts are subjected to thorough post-processing evaluations, including surface quality checks and dimensional verifications to meet customer expectations.

Detailed Inspection Reports: Measurement and inspection reports are provided to validate the product quality, ensuring full transparency and traceability.

Certified Quality for Confidence

Our manufacturing processes are certified to ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and leading industry standards for additive manufacturing. These certifications underscore our commitment to maintaining the highest quality standards, environmentally responsible practices, and cutting-edge production technologies.

Small-Batch Production and Prototyping Support

AutofabX is equipped to support both prototyping and small-batch production using advanced technologies, including:

  • Selective Laser Melting (SLM): A powerful tool for producing high-precision metal parts with complex geometries.

  • CNC Machining: Ideal for parts that require tight tolerances and superior surface finishes, our CNC machining services ensure top-tier accuracy.

  • Rapid Investment Casting: This technique provides an effective solution for creating metal parts with intricate shapes and high detail.

  • Metal Injection Molding (MIM): MIM is a cost-efficient method for producing small, complex parts in large quantities while maintaining consistent quality.

Superior Customer Support

Our commitment to quality extends to our customer support. At AutofabX, we work closely with our customers to ensure that all expectations are met, offering real-time communication and support throughout the production process. We provide a dedicated team of experts who are available to assist with project management, technical questions, and any quality concerns.
