QUALITY AND METROLOGY DEPARTMENT EXPANSION

Serving our customer’s quality need has always been an important part of the TechNH business.  Supporting the increasingly heightened inspection needs of the medical, industrial and defense industries is a priority for us. The increased demand of critical metrology and validation work necessitated an expansion and upgrade of quality department. ​

The working area for this department expanded from six hundred square feet to one thousand and thirty square feet.

​In addition to the expanded space we also recently added:

• CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine)
• OGP (Optical Gage Product)
• Surface Plate
• Height Gage

Each of these machines has allowed our staff to be more effective in the completion of the necessary tasks to maintain quality, validations and traceability in our process.  

The additional footage has allowed improvements in personal work stations and better organization to support the 5S methodologies being put in to practice. The 5S System is a Lean Manufacturing Methodology composed of five practices; Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize and Sustain.
​
These practices contribute to an environment of higher productivity, greater staff satisfaction and a safer work environment.      ​
