Quality is alpha and omega for HACO
As our customers’ demands increase, there is also a need for an ever-greater focus on quality. The most effective way to meet these high requirements and continuously demonstrate ongoing improvements is through a quality management system. At HACO, our quality management system is certified in accordance with the internationally recognised ISO 9001:2015.
This certification helps us implement streamlined processes as well as improve production and quality efficiency. The quality management system covers all areas at HACO, from customer enquiry to final delivery to the customer.
Advantages of choosing a machine shop with EN ISO 9001:2015 certification
There are several advantages to choosing a machine shop with, like HACO, ISO 9001:2015 certification. First and foremost, ISO 9001:2015 certification demonstrates that customer satisfaction and operational reliability are in focus. Our customers’ quality requirements and needs are met in accordance with the agreements entered into, and we simply do not compromise on our quality.
Furthermore, the certification also helps ensure that everyone understands the company’s defined goals, organisational structure and business culture. This means you get a stable supplier, sub-supplier and partner that always lives up to agreed terms, prices and quality.
With more than 50 years’ experience in the industry, we are a stable partner with the quality objectives in place. At HACO, we can help you with the production of round machinery in different materials. We deliver high-quality solutions within nearly all industries.
HACO has its own Laser Tracker, Leica Absolute Tracker AT401. This makes it possible to carry out 3D measurement and verification tasks based on a 3D model, or it can be programmed to perform more specific, customer-agreed measurement tasks based on 2D drawings or other material.
The Laser Tracker is included in an annual maintenance and calibration routine carried out by Hexagon Metrology Nordic, just as conventional measuring tools are included in annual calibration agreements in cooperation with Element Metech.
Since the acquisition of the Laser Tracker in 2014, it has primarily been used for verification tasks on large items. The setup for these tasks is optimal, as we have a large measurement table (Ø6000), which ensures a flat and stable base on which the items are placed. This eliminates any twisting and shape deviations in the items, thereby providing the best possible basis for any measurement task.
Our LT operators have completed intensive courses in the use of the Laser Tracker. In addition, the operators have been upgraded with GPS courses, providing general and advanced knowledge.
HACO is also at the forefront of analysis work, with ongoing analyses of critical targets, Dim. Test or CTQ measurements. Using various analysis methods, HACO can demonstrate the accuracy of different processes to customers, and thereby equip customers with regard to optimising tolerance requirements, etc. for their own products.
We have experience with the following analysis methods:
- MSA – Measurement System Analysis.
- Measurement uncertainty budgets according to the GUM method.
- In-house analysis methods based on our internal wishes and needs.
- Customer-specified analysis work.
