As a rule of thumb, quality control is an indispensable part in every industry manufacturing process. In steel fabrication, a proper quality control (QC) system plays an important role in producing high-quality products in all processes from developing new products, receiving raw materials, production and delivering. From the customer side, QC system reassures them that the products they receive will be of the highest quality.
Advantages of Quality Control for Steel Fabrication
Achieve high quality standards
In many parts, a productive Quality Control (QC) system is a symbol of a reliable steel fabricator. As a part of the fabrication process, quality control system is vital to achieve quality standards including ISO standards, US, AS, EU, NZ or CA standards based on customer requirements. The right process will produce the right results. It limits room for errors, improving the quality of products and allows steel fabricators to meet customer expectations. It also creates benchmarks for quality, testing products, mass productions and timely schedules.

Cut cost, reduce input materials and offer good prices
When a manufacturing facility has a good QC system in place, they can control well their production process, reduce the number of errors which also reduces input materials and waste. When bad costs are cut, they can free up resources that can be used in a more productive capacity and be able to offer reasonable prices for their customers.
Get real-time updates
QC improves overall safety in the factory and employee performance. It creates an effective, cooperative work environment for both management, employees, and customers to strive in. A helpful QC system can allow customers track orders and get real-time updates.
To fabricate a custom metal fabricated part, component, or finished product involves many steps. From CAD drawings and specifications and selecting appropriate material to the proper fabricating and forming techniques, as well as handling and shipping, every step along the way should include quality standards and inspection policies to ensure the finished product is of the highest quality.
How do you identify good steel fabricators with reliable quality control?
ISO standards
For a large of companies, quality control is a necessary section in a broader quality management system (QMS). A system best exemplified by manufacturers that have achieve ISO 9001 certification. ISO 9001 is the world’s leading international quality management system standard. As a customer service-focused standard, ISO 9001 is the yardstick by which all quality assurance systems are measured.
QC team
As custom metal fabrication is a multi-step process, QC is a team effort that can affect every office or department in the factory. It has to begin with top management – the owner, president, shop manager, head of engineering, other managers and shift leaders – as well as workers and support staff. All members need working in concert to resolve any quality issues that may occur.
QC process
On a normal working day, a QC team is tasked with performing first and last piece approval for products during the fabrication process. This would include receiving inspections, in-process inspections, first-article inspections, final inspections, and even any calibrations or measurements before products can be readied for shipping.
Before deciding on a steel fabricator, companies seeking custom metal fabrication services should ask about that fabricator’s quality control system. Central to the effectiveness of a quality management system, quality control is not only essential for the success of custom metal fabrication but will ensure customers that the production of custom metal products will be fabricated to the highest standards.
