ISO 9001:2015 quality management

Quality and traceability

Drawing-based inspection, controlled production records and traceability applied according to the component requirement.

Quality begins with the drawing, specification and revision supplied for quotation and production. The required dimensions, tolerances, materials, finish and inspection evidence are reviewed before an appropriate manufacturing and verification route is approved.

Inspection approach

Inspection may include first-off checks, in-process verification, final inspection, gauges, dimensional measurement and retained records. The exact method is selected according to the feature, tolerance, production quantity, process risk and customer requirement.

Tolerance qualification

Capricorn Components does not apply one unsupported tolerance claim across every machine, process and component. Tolerances are assessed against component geometry, material, production method and drawing requirements during quotation and technical review.

Traceability

Material, production and inspection traceability is applied according to the contract, drawing, quality plan and agreed documentation requirement. Customers should state any material-certificate, batch, inspection-report or special record requirement at RFQ stage.
