We Ensure Quality in Every Step
Before CNC Machining Manufacturing
DFM Analysis
Before production begins, our engineering team conducts a comprehensive technical review of your part design. This includes detailed analysis of key factors like material selection, surface treatment, structural design, production processes, and 3D and 2D drawings. Our goal is to confirm the technical feasibility of the design and optimize the production process to meet your quality and cost-effectiveness requirements. Through this rigorous evaluation, we can identify and resolve potential issues in advance, ensuring smooth production.
Material Verification
Upon request, we provide certification reports for the materials used, issued by the raw material manufacturer. These reports typically include information such as heat number, grade, dimensions, mechanical properties, and chemical analysis, ensuring the raw materials meet high-quality standards.
In Machining Production
In-Process Inspection
In precision machining, accurate material positioning is essential. We use an on-site inspection system that can automatically detect material positioning and make necessary adjustments. This system helps us identify and resolve issues promptly, reducing costs and shortening lead times. With this advanced inspection technology, we ensure process stability, product consistency, and improved production efficiency.
Process Quality Control
At VMT, we follow ISO 9001:2015 standards, ensuring every operation meets the highest quality requirements. Our quality control team performs thorough inspections of all work-in-progress parts every two hours. This regular review helps detect and resolve potential issues early, effectively mitigating risks and ensuring production continuity and product consistency.
Final Prototype Parts Production
Full-Dimensional Inspection Report
For each order, we provide a detailed full-dimensional inspection report for transparency and accuracy. The report includes total part count, key dimensional data, thread specifications, tolerance ranges, thickness and depth measurements, and the visual condition of the parts.
Packaging and Shipping
We offer custom packaging based on client requirements, including branded packaging with the customer’s logo for premium products. For fragile or heavier items, we customize secure packaging options, such as cartons or wooden crates, to ensure the products remain intact during transport.

Parts Manufactured
All finished products, whether manufactured or procured, first undergo inspection at our IQC (Incoming Quality Control). During inspection, we review production orders, incoming part lists, and drawings. Sampling inspection is conducted per the AQL (Acceptable Quality Level) standard, while critical appearance and dimensional features are 100% inspected. Additionally, products with special surface treatments are subjected to relevant reliability testing, with inspection reports provided.
If defects are found, we issue a defect report and immediately notify the quality manager to recheck and determine acceptance or rejection. If the quality manager cannot make a decision, other departments are involved for a final decision. Approved products are stamped with a quality seal, then packaged and shipped to ensure every CNC machined part meets customer specifications.
VMT is certified in ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System and IATF 16949, with all departments strictly adhering to these standards for production control:

Qualification Assessment Report
Visual Inspection
We conduct a thorough inspection of each part to assess surface smoothness, scratches, burrs, dents, dimensional accuracy, geometric accuracy, positional accuracy, surface roughness, markings, and color to ensure compliance with the customer's appearance standards.
Dimensional Inspection
We use calipers, micrometers, and height gauges to check the dimensions of simple CNC machined parts, ensuring quality and accuracy. For complex parts that require high precision, we employ a Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) for precise measurement.
Thread Inspection
For parts with threads, we utilize go/no-go gauges to inspect the threads, checking their dimensions, shape, and surface finish to ensure they meet customer assembly requirements.
If you require wear resistance for the part's surface, we can conduct film thickness testing and provide a report to enhance the quality, performance, and lifespan of the parts.
Air Tightness Test
If you have airtight requirements for the parts, we can perform leakage tests and provide reports accordingly.
Salt Spray Testing
For parts with corrosion resistance requirements, we can simulate marine or salt spray environments to conduct accelerated corrosion tests as needed.

The manufacturer is strongly recommended. In the past few years of cooperation we have ordered several machined products from aluminum and stainless steel. These products are manufactured in compliance with tolerance requirements and require product finish. Now I have ordered another one. The service is excellent and any questions can be answered and resolved in time.
The dimensions are all customized according to my drawings no tolerance issues and the parts are delivered on time. I am very satisfied with it.
I pay much attention to the surface treatment aspect of this product. I was a little worried about the cooperation at the beginning. I am very satisfied with the product now and hope to cooperate for a long time.
