Quality Control Standards in OEM Metal Fabrication at HD Mechanical Vietnam

In OEM manufacturing, quality isn’t optional — it’s essential. For international clients outsourcing custom metal fabrication, consistent and transparent quality control (QC) processes are the backbone of trust.

At HD Mechanical Vietnam, we implement a comprehensive, multi-step QC system that ensures every metal component we ship meets your specifications — every time.

Why Quality Control Matters in OEM Metal Fabrication

Precision Is Key in Custom Parts

Whether it’s a mailbox housing, metal leg, or garden edging, even slight dimensional errors can cause:

  • Fitment issues in assembly lines

  • Delays in downstream processes

  • Rejected shipments and added cost

Cost of Poor Quality

Errors in metal fabrication can lead to:

  • Scrapping large volumes

  • Shipping rework components

  • Damaged client relationships

A strong QC process helps prevent all of the above.

Our Quality Control Process at HD Mechanical Vietnam

1. Dimensional Measurement

Every critical dimension is inspected using:

  • Vernier calipers and micrometers

  • Laser measurement (for longer parts)

  • Custom jigs for fitment testing

  • Measurements are documented and traceable per batch.

2. Welding Inspection

For welded products like raised garden beds or metal frames:

  • Visual inspection for burn marks, spatter, porosity

  • Weld bead consistency & strength check

  • Structural alignment confirmation using fixtures

3. Surface Finish Inspection

Before powder coating or after polishing:

  • Check for scratches, dents, tool marks

  • Surface smoothness verified

  • Powder-coat adhesion tested via tape or impact test

4. First Article Inspection (FAI)

Before mass production, we send a first approved sample (FAI) with:

  • Full dimension report

  • Photos or videos

  • Optional live inspection via video call

5. Final Pre-shipment QC

Before export:

  • Random sampling based on AQL standards

  • Confirm packing per spec

  • Label, barcode, and document check
