Six checks stand between a part coming off the plate and a part you can put your name on. Each one answers a question a quality engineer already has to answer by hand today.
Six checks between the build plate and sign off.
Checked against the spec and tolerance band it was made to, and returned as a clear pass or fail rather than a judgement call.
Key dimensions measured and compared against the source model, so shrinkage and warping arrive as numbers instead of opinions.
Surface flaws, layer separation and incomplete infill flagged on the part itself, before it moves down the line.
The certificate that travels with the part: conformance, material and process evidence in one document a customer will accept.
Every certified part traceable to its build, its machine, its material batch and the model it was cut from.
Approve and release through one shared queue, then export the evidence pack an audit asks for without rebuilding it by hand.
AM tells you a print should succeed. That is worth a great deal, and it is still a forecast. For anyone shipping parts into a machine, a vehicle or a patient, the question is not whether the build was likely to work, but whether this specific part measures up.
