Keeping It In-House: Ohio Valley Manufacturing’s Tool and Die Services

Here at Ohio Valley Manufacturing we are proud to say that we handle every step of our tool and die manufacturing in-house. We oversee the entire process, from the first computer model designed by our skilled engineers and the prototype parts, to the shipment of the finished product to our loyal customers, and all of the necessary testing and inspection that is required in-between.

We do this because quality control, and our quest for perfection, are so important to us. The engineers and employees at our fully staffed tool and die center ensure that our customers are getting the best possible product. Since we do all of the work in-house there is no chance of confusion from dealing with outsourced work and we are able to ensure that our quality products are made quickly and efficiently by our skilled manufacturing workers. In addition, we are able to cut down costs significantly, ensuring that our customers get an amazing product, at a fair price.

In the future, we will continue our commitment to making quality tools and dies for our customers. Keep an eye on our website for up to date information, and as always, feel free to contact us with any inquiries about our products.

Passing Audits: Both ISO and Our Customers Approve

Our regular readers know that we’re proud of our ISO certification and quality standards. We had some pretty big developments in those areas in June that we’d like to talk about a bit more. The first was that, surprising no one, we passed our annual ISO audit to maintain certification. While this process is not as intensive as the full re-certification, it’s not something to take lightly. Every step of every process needs to meet the organization’s standards – not a problem for Ohio Valley, where quality is an everyday part of our process.

ISO wasn’t the only group visiting our facilities for a look at our quality assurances. Manufacturing firms and suppliers often like to inspect their own suppliers’ operations to ensure that a sound and efficient system is in place. In June, we had not one, but two such new partners come to Ohio Valley Manufacturing. As with our ISO audit, meeting their standards was business as usual, welcoming them to tour and inspect each and every one of our departments to ensure that they were entering a business relationship bound for success.
