Quality built into every detail
A cross-functional discipline, integrated control and continuous improvement to ensure that every part and every assembly meets the customer’s requirements, batch after batch.
Quality management system
EDSA operates under a quality management system certified to IATF 16949, the benchmark standard for the automotive and mobility sector.
This certification guarantees that our planning, production, control and continuous improvement processes meet the most demanding standards in the industry.
Our quality policy reflects management’s commitment to customer satisfaction and the involvement of the whole organisation.
-
Planning
Robust planning, control and validation processes.
-
Continuous improvement
A culture of quality and improvement at every stage.
-
Customer focus
Customer satisfaction at the heart of our work.
Process and Product Control
Quality control is built into the production flow. A continuous monitoring system that lets us ensure conformity from the first operation through to the finished product.
Checking fixtures
Each part number has dedicated checking fixtures – templates, gauges, etc. – designed in parallel with the production tooling to verify critical dimensions directly on the shop floor.
Dimensional inspection
Verification of dimensional and geometric features using conventional instruments and a Trimek CMM for complex geometries or tight tolerances.
Flatness and hardness
Systematic flatness verification and hardness testing (Rockwell / Vickers) on heat-treated parts, with batch records and traceability to the heat treatment cycle.
Built to your requirements
Control plans tailored to each customer’s specifications: PPAP, frequencies, acceptance criteria and records available for audit.
100% Sorting System
In-house 100% sorting systems that ensure no non-conforming part ever reaches the customer.
-
100% flatness sorting
Automatic classification of parts according to compliance with the flatness requirement.
-
Full traceability
Results recorded by part and batch, with conformity reports for the customer.
-
100% hardness sorting
Part-by-part verification of the heat treatment result for critical ranges.
-
Extendable to other critical parameters
Adaptable to component presence, reference geometry, insertion torque and more.
3D Digitisation and Inspection
to support dimensional control
When conventional inspection methods are not enough, 3D scanning delivers fast, rigorous dimensional inspection results, at our facilities or on site, without dismantling the assembly or interrupting set-up.
-
Direct comparison with CAD model
Overlay of the 3D scan on the reference model to identify dimensional and geometric deviations using a colour map.
-
Dimensional validation of first samples and launches
Support for PPAP approval and tooling validation during the industrialisation phase, with documented results.
-
GD&T deviation analysis
Marking of dimensional and geometric tolerances according to GD&T principles, with a complete dimensional report customised to the customer’s specification or manufacturing drawing.
-
Resolution of series issues
Technical support for non-conformities involving complex geometry, where conventional measurement cannot determine the origin or magnitude of the deviation.
For projects requiring reverse engineering, conversion of meshes to parametric solids or product development through additive manufacturing, these advanced capabilities are available through MESHIND.
