Advanced Heat Treat Corp. announces that it has been awarded Nadcap Merit status for Heat Treating (Ion Nitriding) at the MidPort location in Waterloo, IA.
“Achieving Merit status for the second time in a row is a huge accomplishment for us. Our team works hard each day to ensure the highest quality is given not only to our aerospace and defense customers, but every customer that sends parts to AHT! We are proud to offer the Nadcap certification for our ion (or plasma) nitriding services and hope our customers take pride in the fact they send their parts to AHT.” Stated John Ludeman, Director of Metallurgy and Quality Excellence.
Advanced Heat Treat Corp. has held Nadcap accreditation since 2013. Having demonstrated their ongoing commitment to quality by satisfying customer requirements and industry specifications, the Nadcap Task Group has determined that Advanced Heat Treat Corp. has earned special recognition. This means that, instead of having their next Nadcap audit in twelve months, Advanced Heat Treat Corp. has been granted an accreditation that lasts 18 months!
“Achieving Nadcap accreditation is not easy: it is one of the ways in which the aerospace industry identifies those who excel at manufacturing quality product through superior special processes. Companies such as Advanced Heat Treat Corp. go above and beyond achieving Nadcap accreditation to obtain Merit status and they should be justifiably proud of it,” said Joe Pinto, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer at the Performance Review Institute. “Benefitting from a less frequent audit schedule reduces audit costs and associated pressures and demonstrates the trust that the aerospace industry has in Advanced Heat Treat Corp., based on their past performance in Nadcap audits. PRI is proud to support continual improvement in the aerospace industry by helping companies such as Advanced Heat Treat Corp. be successful and we look forward to continuing to assist the industry moving forward.”
