Why Quality Control Matters in Manufacturing

No matter what industry you work in, once you are done with a job or project, it is normal to check over your work. This step can help you avoid any unnecessary issues further down the line. For manufacturing, our rules are no different.

What is Quality Control?

In manufacturing quality control is a process that ensures customers are receiving the products they need free from any defects. It is an extremely important step as it can cost billions of dollars to fix the mistakes made from a defected product. Most recalls can be avoided by simply following this step.

What are the benefits of Quality Control?

Our customers expect and demand high quality products and when they get them it can increase customer loyalty, gain repeat business, and even gain you a couple of new customers from referrals. Not only will it do this, but it will help you maintain and even improve your position in the market, improve the safety of your products, reduce liability risks, and help contribute to an overall positive branding of your product. When you have a quality control measure set in place your company is far less likely to face backlash from product recalls and you are not putting your customers at risk.

Quality control helps streamline production and ensures that the final product meets the company's expectations and quality criteria. It ensures that the processes used to design, test, and produce the products needed will be done accurately. There is nothing more important than creating the right parts you need for your job, especially when working with the aerospace and automobile industries. One small mishap could seriously hurt you, your company, and your customers. That is why at Amerascrew in Mansfield, Ohio, we take quality control very seriously. We have an entire department that is dedicated to checking every single product we put out so our customers know they are getting the best quality products possible.

Styles of Automatic Screw Machines

When you hear the term "automatic screw machine" or the less formal saying of just "screw machine", you may be under the impression that they serve the same function as a screwdriver or drill. This is not the case. Automatic screw machines are essentially lathes used to machine parts for industry or sale. They are capable of threading material, although that is not their sole purpose. A screw machine is essentially a lathe which rotates a piece of material (i.e., wood, clay, metal) on an axis to perform various operations such as cutting sanding, knurling, drilling deformation, facing or turning. At Amerascrew , our engineers analyze your needs closely to give you the most cost-effective method for your parts.

If you’re a customer of Amerascrew , you’ll know that we are proud to produce American-made parts. In fact, our website states, “Don’t go overseas when the quality your business needs is right in your own backyard!” So why do so many companies these days send jobs overseas to manufacture products in warehouses in places like China and India?
