Our customers expect the highest quality products and that is exactly what we provide. From wire with the appropriate UL criteria to the 100 percent electrical test, each assembly must pass before leaving our facility. We take our quality standards very seriously and use state-of-the-art computerized testing equipment to ensure we are providing accurate products to all of our customers.
Quality assurance is built into every step in our assembly by virtue of the tollgate process. Quality checks are conducted by the operator at each phase of the assembly to ensure product meets the specified requirements. The extensive use of engineering documentation, visual aids, gauges, and test equipment are utilized throughout all of our manufacturing processes. We believe in providing our customers with outstanding products each and every time.
