Quality Control

Uphold Standards, Control Processes, Fully Traceable

System-Driven

we have established a whole-process quality control management system from product design, process development, production management, inspection and testing. It has passed ISO 9001 quality management system certification and GJB 9001C weapon and equipment quality management system certification, and has fully implemented the quality management system.

Independent QC

The quality control is focused on both production processes and final products by independent QC department, Skillful and full-time QC is appointed for each production process to conduct test and inspection according to standard requirements or unique ITP- “Inspection & Test Plan” for each order.
