CMTA
From drawing review to dispatch, this is how requirements are reviewed, controlled, inspected and documented — and what is deliberately not claimed until it can be evidenced.
Best for
Buyers assessing supplier risk before placing critical work
You send
Your documentation and inspection requirements
You get back
An agreed inspection scope, then reports against it
How it starts
Requirements agreed before manufacture, not after
Every job has a named engineer responsible for its technical outcome. Quality is not a department that inspects at the end; it is the sequence of decisions from drawing review to dispatch. CMTA's approved quality policy wording will be published once confirmed.
Drawings are reviewed before quotation to identify critical dimensions, fits, finish, material and treatment, and to raise questions early. Ambiguities are resolved with you rather than assumed — an assumption is just a defect with a delay built in.
Material is procured to the drawing specification and certificates are passed through where requested at order stage. Detailed traceability practice will be described here once verified.
Critical features are checked between operations, so an error in turning is caught before grinding and heat-treatment distortion is caught before finishing — while both are still recoverable.
Finished parts are inspected against the drawing's critical dimensions and visually checked before packing and protection.
The inspection equipment list and calibration practice will be published here once verified, so that everything on this page can be relied on. We would rather publish less and have it be true.
Nonconforming parts are segregated, the cause identified and the process corrected before repeat manufacture. Customers are informed when a nonconformance affects their delivery, before the delivery date rather than on it.
This section will list only certifications that are active and verifiable, with documentary evidence. None are claimed until confirmed. If a certification is a condition of your supplier approval, please ask us directly for the current position.
FAQ
The questions engineers and buyers ask before sending a drawing. If yours is not here, ask it directly — you will get an engineer's answer, not a brochure.
Still have a question?
Talk to Anita M.N, Managing Partner, or send the drawing and let the review answer it.
Dimensional inspection reports on agreed critical features, with material certificates where requested at order stage.
Identified at drawing review, planned into the process with inspection points, checked in-process and confirmed at final inspection.
Certificates are passed through where requested. Full traceability practice will be described here once verified.
Only active, verifiable certifications are published on this site. Please contact us for the current position rather than assuming from a logo.
