Quality Statistics

We take quality very seriously. We are ISO 9001:2008 and TS 16949:2009 certified by a third party.

 

Statistics

Swihart has many metrics in place to ensure the highest quality for all the parts that we manufacture. These metrics are reviewed and evaluated very frequently, so we can identify any areas of improvement in an extremely timely fashion. Our metrics help us hold ourselves to the highest standards in the area of quality.

 

Some of our quality metrics include:

  • We have met and exceeded our scrap percentage goal of less than .35% in an industry where the standard scrap percentage is much higher.
  • SPC is monitored utilizing QC-Calc software interfaced with our CMMs.
  • 100% layout is performed on 1st piece inspections.
  • In-process verifications include many 100% checks on critical characteristics.
  • CMM checks are performed two times per day, which gather SPC data to help us hold to the customer required 1.67 CPK (process capability index measurement).
