Our quality management system is based on the DIN/ISO 9001:2000 standard. Parts of our company are also certified to the ISO/TS 16949:2002 standard, as required by our customers in the automotive industry. Our quality management system is continuously improved to assure that we will continue to meet the increasing quality requirements of our customers. Our goal is to prevent failures.

Modern quality planing tools like FMEA guarantee reliable manufacturing processes. Comprehensive tests with the most modern testing equipment are used for in-process and outgoing inspections. Computer controlled 2D and 3D measuring devices support the monitoring of the manufacturing processes.

Our laboratories have the most sophisticated testing equipment. We also test raw materials, precious metal alloys and electroplating baths with atomic absorption spectrometry, x-ray fluorescence analysis, inductively couple plasma and other studies. Contact materials and carrier materials are tested for their electrical, mechanical and physical properties such as hardness, tensile strength, resistance to alternating bending, conductivity, and contact resistance. We perform microsection examination to check microstructure and layer thickness. Inspection with a scanning electron microscope and microprobe guarantees that the contact surfaces are perfectly clean. Bondable surfaces are inspected by means of wire bonding devices and pull testers.
