Nordex, Inc. recently  announced the establishment of a quality management system for AS9100D & ISO 9001:2015. The company is involved in the manufacture, distribution, assembly and refurbishing of catalog and non-standard high precision mechanical/electro-mechanical components and assemblies such as bearings, couplings, gears, ball slides, enclosed geartrains and related instrument grade power transmission components and assemblies for medical laboratory and industrial analytical instruments, factory automation, semiconductor and aerospace OEMs. 

“Nordex has been in business for more than 60 years.  We have accomplished this through continuously striving to improve our business so we can better serve our customers.  AS9100D certification helps Nordex to be a better company, through improving our quality processes and reducing our costs—this helps us to provide more value to our customers and ensures we always deliver the high-quality products they have come to expect,” said Dan Agius Jr., CFO and part-owner of Nordex, Inc. 

It’s not just the quality department that has been improved by AS9100 certification, but Nordex’s entire manufacturing operations, according to Agius.

“Through our heightened quality procedures, we are running more efficiently and finding and correcting potential problems very early on in our manufacturing process.  Obtaining AS9100D certification has helped provide us with the tools to do this by developing improved risk mitigation strategies.  This helps us to meet and exceed our customer’s needs when it comes to quality and on-time delivery,” he added. 

With the evolution of the power transmission industry, Nordex has been able to thrive thanks in part to quality control procedures that have helped the organization to better adopt and utilize cutting-edge power transmission technologies.

Agius believes the company will continue this approach in the future. 

“We need to consistently update our quality requirements so we can keep meeting our customers’ needs as their businesses are ever changing.  AS9100D is a quality framework that gives us the tools to keep building out our quality systems and standards, however necessary, well into the future.
