First-class inspection department

At AEC, quality is at the heart of everything we do, which is why we pride ourselves on having a first-class inspection department.

In our temperature-controlled inspection room, our highly skilled inspectors carry out a wide range of inspections and tests to ensure the parts we produce meet the tightest of specifications.

To support this vital work, we also continually invest in state-of-the-art inspection equipment so we can measure parts and components with even more precision.

If you’re looking for high-precision components that are fully verified and inspected with complete traceability, please contact us about your needs, no matter how complex.

// Quality documentation 

We can produce full documentation packs for you to show traceability throughout the manufacturing process of a part. 

From material certification to inspection reports, we can provide you with all the documentation required to meet your end client’s approval.

// Temperature-controlled inspection room  

All our inspection work and quality testing is carried out in our dedicated temperature-controlled inspection room. This ensures components are at the optimum temperature prior to precise measurement.

The temperature of the room is set at 68°F (approx 20°C), which the ISO has defined as the reference temperature for measurement. 

// Full calibration

We operate using a full calibration system for all our equipment and machinery. This is to ensure compliance with ISO9001:2015 accreditation, which specifies requirements for a quality management system.
