Quality & Inspection

Quality Is Verified, Not Assumed.

Orvindal provides inspection and quality documentation from single-unit prototypes through production runs, with CMM, optical, and manual measurement matched to the drawing and customer requirement.

Quality Starts at RFQ

We Plan the Inspection Before We Make the Part

Tight tolerances, GD&T, material traceability, special-process records, sampling requirements, and reporting needs are best defined before production begins.

Orvindal provides inspection matched to the geometry, tolerance, quantity, and customer requirement—from straightforward manual verification to CMM or optical inspection for more complex features and tighter controls.

Critical characteristics, first-article reporting, material records, special-process documentation, and customer quality clauses can be defined at RFQ and carried through production and final release.

Quality Through Production

Verification at the Right Stage

Inspection does not have to wait until the last operation. The depth and timing of verification can be matched to part complexity, tolerance, quantity, and risk.

01

Pre-Production Review

Drawing requirements, GD&T, critical dimensions, materials, special processes, sampling, and required records are reviewed before work begins.

02

In-Process Verification

Critical features can be checked during production so important dimensions are verified before additional operations or value are added.

03

Final Inspection & Release

Final dimensional verification and required documentation are completed against the defined requirement before the order is released for shipment.

Inspection Methods

Inspection Matched to the Part

The right method depends on the feature, tolerance, geometry, reporting requirement, and production risk—not on a one-size-fits-all checklist.

CMM

CMM Inspection

Coordinate measurement for complex geometry, positional relationships, profiles, bores, patterns, and tightly controlled dimensional requirements.

OPT

Optical Comparator

Optical inspection for profiles, radii, edges, angles, contours, and smaller features that benefit from non-contact visual comparison.

MAN

Manual Dimensional Inspection

Micrometers, calipers, height gauges, bore gauges, pins, thread gauges, and related tools for direct feature verification.

GAGE

Feature-Specific Gauging

Pin, plug, thread, bore, height, and other feature-specific methods can be used when they are the most practical way to verify the requirement.

Documentation & Traceability

Available on Every Order

From a single prototype to a large production run, Orvindal can provide the quality records required by the program. Define the package at RFQ and we will build it into the requirement.

01

Dimensional Inspection Reports

Recorded dimensional results for specified features, critical characteristics, or complete inspection requirements.

02

FAI / First Article Reports

First-article inspection and customer-specific first-piece documentation for new parts, revisions, or controlled requirements.

03

Material Certifications & Traceability

Material certifications and applicable lot, heat, or material traceability matched to the order requirement.

04

Certificates of Conformance

Certificates of Conformance available to document that supplied parts were produced to the defined purchase requirement.

05

Process Certifications

Applicable records for specified secondary or special processes can be included as part of the shipment documentation package.

06

Sampling Plans & Customer Forms

Customer-specific sampling requirements, inspection forms, quality clauses, and reporting formats can be incorporated into the order.

Higher-Risk Requirements

When the Print Demands More, the Inspection Does Too.

Tight tolerances, complex GD&T, critical interfaces, and controlled applications can require deeper verification. Orvindal can provide expanded first-article reporting, critical-feature inspection, customer-defined sampling, and supporting quality records when the requirement calls for it.

Order Size

Prototype Through Production

The same quality resources are available whether the order is one part, a short development run, or an ongoing production requirement.
