are performed using calibrated equipment including a Hexagon coordinate measuring machine (CMM), optical comparator systems, Micro-Trac / Gagemaker systems, and precision hand measurement tools.
First Article Inspection is performed in accordance with AS9102C (Forms 1–3) for new parts, drawing revisions, and significant process tooling changes. Inspection results, nonconformances, and corrective actions are documented and retained in accordance with FMW’s Quality Management System.
Where specialized processing is required, FMW utilizes approved and monitored sub-contractors for processes such as heat treating, anodizing, HVOF, laser cladding, and other functional or protective coatings. Customer requirements are flowed down to sub-tier suppliers, and FMW maintains full traceability and oversight of sub-contracted processes to ensure conformity with contractual and quality requirements.
FMW maintains a formal Quality Management System aligned with internationally recognized aerospace and industrial standards. Certification and registration status are summarized below.
