"Experts in CNC Machining"                                                            (800) 241-4327

At Advance Machining & Gear, we work hard to ensure that you get what you expect.  Here are 18 reasons why you should trust Advance to provide you with a quality product:

1. Beyond manual measuring instruments, Advance uses calibrated, automated inspection equipment, including a Sheffield CNC Cordax CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine) and a Faro Gage portable CMM inspection arm.  Each machine has the ability to provide inspection measurements and reports that are nearly impossible to do manually, including accuracy of .0002".

2. In our machine shop, all of the measuring instruments are calibrated on a regular schedule.

3. Even though 99.6% of the parts that we ship are right the first time, we're not satisfied.

4. We always require material certifications with every order for material that we place.

5. Tight tolerances are common to us because of the demands of many of the industries that we serve, including prosthetics and robotics.

6. All of our skilled machinists are required to complete training classes to ensure proper methods for inspection, print reading, and job set ups.

7. Our 38,000-square-foot facility is so clean that our floors are white.  This ensures a brighter production environment and sets a high level of expectation for what quality means to us.

8. We invest in new equipment on a regular basis to improve our ability to consistently hold tolerances.

9. We complete inspection reports for your orders.

10. All new hires are evaluated for their quality aptitude.

11. In addition to investing in the right equipment for the job, we also invest in the right tooling for the job.

12. Our machinists are cross-trained in departments so that they better understand what's important to help make the next operation perform more effectively.

13. Every job that hits the floor has an inspection report already created, indicating how each dimension is to be measured.

14. We give our machinists what they need to be successful, including a brightly lit workplace.

15. We only make the parts that fit us well.

16. Every job has written routing instructions so that each part number will be manufactured as planned.

17. We only use quality suppliers who are committed to quality as much as we are.  We incorporate a "3 Strikes, and You're Out" policy that lets suppliers know what we expect.

18. All drawings, inspection reports, purchasing histories, and manufacturing reports are kept in our document-control program.
