Quality Policy

Gates Albert strives to be the supplier of choice for our customers by working continuously to improve our processes and providing high quality products that meet or exceed customer, statutory, and regulatory requirements.

Quality at the Source

Gates Albert employs a quality-at-the-source philosophy. Quality of the product produced starts with the machine operator—and quality cannot be “inspected” into the part after it is produced. Using this philosophy, machine operators at Gates Albert are dedicated to producing quality products that exceed customer requirements.

Our commitment to quality also extends to our machining process itself. By specializing in high-volume precision turning with Davenport multi-spindle screw machines, we deliver consistent, repeatable accuracy that meets the strictest quality standards.

Utilizing our Quality Planning Expertise, we support operators with proven systems, including:

  • Machine Preventative Maintenance Program
  • Tool Change Tracking System
  • Statistical Process Controls
  • Continuous Improvement Program focused on improving quality of product
  • Training in preventive action methodology

The focus on quality doesn’t stop with the operator—post-processing is critical to part quality.

Gates Albert’s state-of-the-art parts cleaning equipment allows us to meet international cleanliness standards for the Automotive, HVAC, Aerospace, Medical, Food Processing, Electronics, and Laboratory Equipment markets.

When a project requires the next level of quality, our vision inspection systems ensure that only the correct parts get assembled or molded every time—eliminating downtime and increasing reliability. These automated systems can be adapted for a wide variety of applications.
