Nor-Cote Quality Process
Nor-Cote has in place a process where every weldment, burnout or casting is numbered when it comes into our plant. The part is numbered before it goes into the furnace and after that the
part is blasted and/or painted. The numbers assigned to the part are the last three numbers on our shipper. This allows us to track the part throughout processing. Our supervisors perform quality inspections after the processing is complete and before the parts are loaded for return shipment.
An outside source certifies our furnace instruments monthly and our scale yearly.
