Inspection Process

Four stages.
Zero shortcuts.

Our inspection process is built around specifications and purchase orders. Every stage is documented, every lot is verified before it ships.

1
Incoming Inspection

Parts are microscopically inspected on arrival to verify surface condition before plating begins.

2
Daily Lab Analysis

Our accredited lab runs atomic absorption (AA) analysis daily to maintain bath chemistry per AC7108.

3
XRF Thickness Testing

Post-plate thickness verified with X-ray fluorescence on every order. Full readings provided on all jobs.

4
Final Inspection & Release

All orders must pass final inspection before shipment. Nothing leaves without documented sign-off against the PO/Contract or specification.

Accreditations & Specifications

Qualified to the
strictest standards.
