Quality assurance is an integral part of any company in today’s competitive marketplace, and we take it very seriously. QA at Dolphin is a three-step process:
- A visual inspection is performed by our trained machine operators on every part that is made the moment it comes out of our machine using the parameters and critical dimensions set by you, our customer, to identify any rejects.
- The parts are then randomly inspected once again by our QA personnel at the machine once every hour, and any rejects are logged.
- Finally, the acceptable parts are boxed, counted, and moved to our quality control department, where they are randomly inspected once again, and the count is verified. The parts are then ready for shipment.

- Dolphin uses stringent preventive maintenance schedules to insure optimum equipment efficiency, calibration and equipment utilization. The following equipment is a partial list of the measurement tools used daily to ensure accuracy.
We can provide both final cavity and core steel certification and plastic part inspection. With our Global coordinate measuring machine we can do first article inspections after each mold sample. Not only does it offer high speed scanning and efficient, accurate data collection, but has powerful reverse engineering capabilities the quality process starts at the very beginning of each project. We are certified by and committed to the comprehensive ISO9001 quality standard. We demonstrate this commitment by providing high quality tooling, designed and manufactured so that our clients receive the greatest value. We define quality as total customer satisfaction. This drives us to settle for nothing less than excellence in all aspects of our business as we continuously improve our strong compliment of staff and processes.
Once the CAD data is received the mould is manufactured, molded, tested and inspected using in-house Co-ordinate Measuring Machines (CMM). All of these activities are carried out in our factory to strict quality control guidelines by our experienced staff to ensure they meet our customers’ specific requirements.
