Quality built into every piece, from prototype to production run
With Autocam Medical, you’ll never need to “inspect in” quality. We offer customers a company-wide, world-class Quality Management System (QMS), which is based on lean manufacturing principles. In every one of our four state-of-the-art facilities, we strive for process standardization, zero customer disturbances and waste reduction.
Our QMS encompasses three inter-connected areas:
1. Quality Control (QC), which involves planned inspections during and after production to ensure that parts are manufactured according to customer specifications.
2. Quality Assurance (QA), which is a process-driven approach that ensures that our entire system can meet customer requirements at the highest standard. QA involves internal and third-party audits, including those required for ISO certification.
3. Quality Improvement (QI), which is a continuous, company-wide effort that involves many strategies for improving quality and efficiency.
