Accurately assessing each machined part's risk before it hits production is a key way to improve quality. Taking a look at internal capability and comparing that to the type of material, part application and tolerance requirements takes experience and sound processes to yield the best results. Developing a script for each part and machine ensures that every operator knows the details of this analysis and not only sets up the machine accordingly, but follows strict protocols for quality checks during production.

In an effort to make delivery schedules and keep part cost down, machine shops are under the gun constantly to work faster and more efficiently. If raw materials are of poor quality, part manufacturing costs go up in terms of decreased tool life, machine downtime and material scrap. It's in your best interest to find an experienced supplier who vets their raw material as much as you vet them. It ensures the best quality part, fastest delivery and lower total procurement cost. Quality is a term that is thrown around a lot. Even if a company is ISO 9000-certified, it doesn't always mean their controls are best-in-class. Manufacturers can reduce the risk of poor quality or late delivery by working with an experienced machine shop. In an effort to reduce their own downtime and scrap, these shops have already had the burden of vetting raw material suppliers.
