Quality Assurance

Our process is certified to ISO 9001:2008 and ISO/TS 16949:2009 by Underwriters Laboratories

But that’s just the beginning. To support PPF’s claim of being the best foundry out there, we must adhere to our own stringent quality standards in all aspects of our processing and inventory control.

Standard practice

PPF performs spectral analysis to verify the chemistry of all incoming and in-process alloys.

This involves heat treatment (test bars are verified daily, in house). We also provide non-destructive inspection (dimensional, radiographic, ultrasonic, die-penetrant).
