Quality Assurance
Few, if any areas are as important as Quality Assurance in United States manufacturing. Our high-quality output has frequently been cited by our customers as meeting or exceeding their requirements. Surf-Tech inspects all products to IPC-A-610 specifications or better. All quality inspectors have and maintain IPC-A-610 certifications. Our quality system is centered around our ISO 9001:2015 certification. Continuously certified since 2012 with no third party auditing nonconformances. Ever! Using a realistic approach to quality and focusing on customer satisfaction (returns are less than 0.01% annually) and continual improvement we have transformed into a leading lean manufacturing company. Our Quality Manual and Quality Procedures are available for review upon request to prospective and current customers.
In 2018, Surf-Tech partnered with Cyberoptics using their 3D SQL automated inspection system. The machine is capable of reviewing solder joints and storing defective images for later evaluation by a quality inspector.
BGA’s and QFN’s can be inspected with our VJ Electronicx X-Ray machine. The machine allows for saving of X-ray images directly onto our network to allow for quick review at a later time if necessary.
Completed boards or box-built units can be programmed and/or tested via a fixture and procedure provided by customers to ensure a 100% fully functional unit is shipped.
