Quality Policy and Objectives

It is the quality policy of American Metal Treating to provide the highest quality metallurgical processing to the metal working industry, maintain strict conformance with the requirements and specifications of our customers and to provide continuous ongoing improvement in quality, delivery and customer satisfaction.

The quality objectives of American Metal Treating are to provide the highest quality heat treating to the customer, to provide our services on time and to improve customer satisfaction.

Quality System
The quality management system (QMS) is registered to ISO9001:2008 by PRI Registrar. (Click here to view certificate.) We decided to use PRI as our registrar because of the commitment they have made to the aerospace industry and to ensure that we meet the stringent requirements of our aerospace customers. PRI's dedication to continual improvement has also benefited AMT by focusing our attention on continual improvement of our QMS, which in turn benefits our customers. Our QMS also meets the requirements of Appendix B, 10CFR50 for the nuclear industry. Our QMS creates a framework for clearly defining the control of processes and verification activities, thus providing our customers with the confidence that the services provided by American Metal Treating are performed in a well-defined and controlled environment. It also ensures that all questions arising from a customer's order are resolved whether before, during or after processing.

AMT's furnaces are calibrated, surveyed and certified to comply with AMS 2750 for furnace pyrometry. Furnace control and recorder calibration is done by an independent source that meets the quality requirements set forth by our QMS. Furnace surveys are used to ensure that the uniformity of our furnaces are within the temperature requirements of AMS-2750 and are performed by trained personnel in our quality department. This gives our customers the satisfaction of knowing their work is being processed in equipment capable of controlling temperatures of ± 10 degrees up to ± 25 degrees from set point depending upon the specification requirements and type of furnace used for processing.

Hardness testers are essential in the metallurgical processing industry for ensuring the hardness of customers' products. Our hardness testers are checked daily using NIST traceable certified test blocks in the ranges being used and are calibrated twice per year by an outside source to ensure that our hardness testers meet the requirements of ASTM-E18 and ASTM-E384. We want our customers to have the confidence that the equipment used for hardness testing will provide the most reliable test results possible.

AMT is capable of processing to most MIL, aerospace and nuclear specifications. We are on the approved supplier lists for many companies within these industries. Processing certificates as well as furnace charts can be provided upon request. Give us the opportunity to quote your next job and provide your company with our metallurgical expertise.
