Quality Control
Besides the production facilities which are necessary to achieve the desired quality and capacity, quality control and continuous improvement have always been of the company’s priorities. Especially, this company is responsible for supplying materials and products to a wide range of industries, based on various standards. Fulfilling these expectations is possible only through implementation of precise quality instructions and permanent monitoring of production procedures. In this company, the quality control experts are responsible for monitoring and inspecting all production procedures and their products from A to Z in frame of appropriate standards, to ensure that any process and product comply with quality requirements. Considering the scope of company’s production activities, the Quality Control Unit employs advanced metallurgy, chemistry, and powder coating laboratories. In addition to the input of raw materials, the quality of all products of production lines is evaluated according to the international standards and customer requirements in order to ensure customer satisfaction and continuous improvements of production processes.
The metallurgy laboratory of the company is one of the most advanced chosen of the country in the field of aluminum which is able to investigate all metallurgical, physical, and mechanical specifications of metallic materials, using the following equipment:
. Online hydrogen measuring device produced by one of the most reliable European manufacturers for measuring and controlling hydrogen content in liquid aluminum
. Advanced quantometer device, able to identify and measure the lowest amount of more than 30 effective elements of aluminum alloys
. Tension, pressure, and bending test device in order to check the mechanical specifications of casted alloys
. Metallography and polarization microscope to check the microstructure of produced materials and sections
. Automatic twin cutting and polishing device for preparation of metallography samples
. Ultrasonic test device for nondestructive test of internal defects
. Electrical conductivity measuring device
. Stationary and portable hardness testers for checking the hardness of aluminum sections
. Various and precise dimensional measuring equipment
. The salt spray machine to evaluate the corrosion resistance of the powder coating layer
. Color-meter device for inspection of the color quality and specifications
. The cross-cut device to check the adhesion of the powder coating to the aluminum profile surface
. The thickness-meter for measuring the thickness of the powder coating layer
In chemistry laboratory, the effective factors of the process especially the content of chemicals in the tanks are measured continuously to meet the quality demanded by customers and required by the standards. In addition, the electro anodizing color spectrum, the anodizing layer thickness, and the quality of sealing layer are controlled continuously by means of advanced equipment and according to QUALANOD standard requirements. Furthermore, in the powder coating laboratory, the quality of the input powders is controlled by laboratory spraying guns and ovens before sending to production lines. Moreover, the thickness of powder coating layer, gloss value, and powder adhesion to the metal surface according to the QUALICOAT standard are other tests performed in this laboratory. Due to the high quality of its products, the company as an IMS-qualified one, has been able to achieve technical certification of the Ministry of Roads and Urban Development, ISO 9001, and ISO IATF standards.
