Fonderia Zardo is ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018 certified and invests the utmost commitment in the quality control process in terms of investment of human, instrumental and economic resources, to pursue responsible development objectives towards all stakeholders.
Quality control is the final stage of casting production. The aim is to verify that all the requirements requested by end customers are achieved.
For all gray cast iron and spheroidal iron castings, a complete material certification is provided, according to the agreements made with the customer.
We use software designed exclusively for the quality department such as ITACA QualityCheck.
This is a software module integrated with the other modules of the ITACA ecosystem (ITACA X, ITACA VISION, ITACA ANALISYS, ITACA PYRO) which is divided into two phases:
1. Analysis of the casting batch
Thanks to the direct connection to ITACA X, ITACA QualityCheck shows operators the production status of the batch they need to analyze. The main screen displays all the alarms relating to that specific casting, suggesting the main types of defects that can affect the production batch.
2. Insertion of quality tests
In addition to displaying the acquired production parameters, it allows the insertion of real results of quality controls such as:
• Mechanical properties• Visual checks
• Hardness test
• Videos
• Liquid penetrants
• Micrographs
• X-rays
• Ultrasound
QUALITY CONTROL EQUIPMENT:
One WOLPERT HARDOMETER for HB hardness tests
One USM GO+ ultrasound digital for integrity check
One KRAUTKRAMER DSM ultrasound digital thickness measurer
One CIGIEMME magnetic crack detector for fluorescent inspection (with wood lamp)
