Reliance announces certification to the aerospace quality standard AS9100
Reliance has a history of mechatronic innovation in motion control solutions for airborne applications and is committed to meeting the requirements of the aerospace industry. Reliance Precision Limited is therefore pleased to announce its recent award of certification to AS9100, the international aerospace quality standard based on ISO9001-2000, but with additional requirements in order to provide the rigorous controls required by the aerospace industry.
Reliance adds this aerospace quality assurance certification to its growing list of compliance standards which already includes quality management certification to BS EN ISO 9001:2000 and environmental management certification to BS EN ISO 14001:2004.
Through continuous improvement of all processes and the application of the latest techniques in precision mechanical engineering and electronic control, Reliance produces high integrity, robust, electro-mechanical assemblies and systems with predictable performance. Units are individually designed to meet customer specific requirements for high accuracy position measurement and feedback.
Reliance offers selected customers a specialised and dedicated department for testing, developing and rapid manufacture of new designs. Prototypes are produced directly in metal enabling Reliance to perform functional testing immediately thereby reducing time to market.
Much of the company's assembly work takes place in its extensive cleanroom classified at ISO 14644-1 class ISO 7 (Federal Standard 209D, class 10,000).
