Quality Inspection in Charlottetown: FAQ

What is CMM inspection and when do I need it?
CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine) inspection uses a touch probe or laser scanner to measure part dimensions against a CAD model or drawing. You need it when parts have tight tolerances, GD&T callouts, or when your customer requires documented proof that parts meet spec. It's standard practice for aerospace, medical, and automotive parts.
What is the difference between first article inspection and production inspection?
First article inspection (FAI) is a complete dimensional verification of the first production part - every dimension on the drawing is measured and documented. Production inspection is ongoing sampling - checking critical dimensions at defined intervals to confirm the process remains in control. Both are essential for quality assurance.
What is ISO/IEC 17025 and why does it matter?
ISO/IEC 17025 is the international standard for testing and calibration laboratories. It ensures that measurement results are accurate, traceable, and legally defensible. When your customer or regulatory body requires certified inspection data, they typically require a 17025-accredited lab. Several Canadian metrology labs hold this accreditation.
Can inspection services help with parts from offshore suppliers?
Yes. Many Canadian companies use domestic inspection services to verify parts received from offshore manufacturers. This incoming inspection catches dimensional and quality issues before parts enter your assembly line - avoiding costly rework and production delays. It's a critical quality gate for any offshore supply chain.
