Quality Control Process

At Mikron, we focus on quality from start to finish.

Tight specifications are in place to ensure profiles meet Basic Tolerances, Angularity, Flatness, Bow, Surface Gloss & Quality, Cut Lengths, Color and location of in-line punching like Nail Fin holes. Quality processes continually measure production samples through Quantum Statistical Process Controls and Scan2CAD and state-of-technology imaging software to compare production profiles against original drawings. These processes accurately connect the daily production floor to your approved engineered profile specifications.

Also, our testing often spells the difference between failure and success. To give you the utmost confidence in our products, we routinely conduct 14 quality assurance tests. Mikron exceeds American Architectural Manufacturers Association (AAMA) testing by conducting seven additional Mikron Quality assurance tests.
