“Quality Assurance Manufacturing” for Complex Machined Parts

“Quality Assurance Manufacturing”— assured at every step.

“Quality Assurance Manufacturing” for machined parts is no longer a “given.” Over the years, attempts to save costs by using overseas machining vendors has resulted in a decline in both part quality and delivery reliability. Because of this, there has been a shift to U.S. Reshoring as companies look to bring part production supply back to the U.S. with hopes of improving consistent precision and supply accountability.

In response to this need for assured quality, CED has integrated a systematic Quality Assurance Management Program into every part project we undertake.

CED has a dedicated Quality Assurance Lab containing today’s most advanced measuring, inspection, evaluation, and documentation technologies. Every single phase of a Part Machining program is quality-monitored to ensure specifications are met, tolerances do not waiver, and validation of quality is recorded. We accept no less than 100% accuracy and consistency for every part leaving our plant.

At CED, we’ve proven that implementing and maintaining a regimented QA process actually saves time and resources in the long run by reducing or eliminating waste, while also improving delivery schedules for tolerance-critical parts.
