Quality & compliance

Every instrument leaves with a paper trail.

Material certificates, in-process inspection records and final AQL audits are held for every batch we ship — and available to you on request.

Inspection process

Seven checkpoints between steel and sterile pack

01
Incoming material

Every steel consignment is checked against its mill test certificate for grade, heat number and chemistry before it enters the shop floor.

Record: IMR-01 · mill cert retained
02
Forging & heat treat

Hardness and grain structure are verified per forging lot after quenching and tempering; out-of-band lots are quarantined.

Record: HT-log · lot traceable
03
Dimensional inspection

Working length, jaw alignment, ratchet pitch and tip geometry measured against the drawing with calibrated gauges.

Record: DIM-sheet per lot
04
Hardness verification

Rockwell C testing on sampled units from each lot, with values recorded against the pattern specification.

Record: HRC-report
05
Surface & passivation

Satin or mirror finish inspected under magnification; passivation confirmed by boil test for corrosion resistance.

Record: PASS-01 · boil test
06
Functional test

Each instrument is cycled by hand — scissors cut test, forceps closure, ratchet engagement, retractor spring return.

Record: 100% functional check
07
Final AQL audit & marking

Independent QA audit to AQL 0.65 before laser marking, labelling and release to packing.

Record: AQL 0.65 audit

Regulatory questions we get asked

Are the instruments supplied sterile?
Standard supply is non-sterile, cleaned and ready for the hospital's own autoclave cycle. Sterile-packed supply is available on OEM orders with a validated ethylene oxide or gamma cycle and matching ISO 11607 packaging.
Can you support our regulatory filing in a new market?
Yes. We provide technical files, declarations of conformity, material certificates and process validation summaries. For markets requiring a local representative we can work with your appointed agent or introduce one.
How long are batch records kept?
Manufacturing and inspection records are retained for eleven years from the date of release, in line with EU MDR requirements for Class I reusable devices.
Do you accept customer-witnessed inspection?
We do. Pre-shipment inspection can be witnessed on site or by a third party such as SGS or Bureau Veritas, arranged at the time of order.
What happens if an instrument fails in service?
Send us the reference and batch code. We trace it to the forging lot and inspection records, and replace or credit any instrument that failed against its specification.
