State-of-the-art tools for checking hardness, dimensions, thicknesses, radii, chamfers, roughness, and any other characteristics useful for detailed inspection of brass nuts and components
CONTINUOUS TRAINING AND INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES AS INDISPENSABLE ELEMENTS OF DALL'ERA VALERIO'S QUALITY DEPARTMENT
Dall'Era Valerio has a long know how on the subject of "quality," acquired through the application of rigorous and proven production control procedures and state-of-the-art instrumentation for measuring brass parts. All this has led the company to a minimum level of scrap on millions of parts produced. The philosophy that guides us is simple: the nut, like any other component made, must be highly reliable so that it can be installed in complete harmony in the plumbing, gas, refrigeration, faucet or valve system for which it is intended.
THE TRAINING OF QUALITY TECHNICIANS THROUGH IN-HOUSE COACHING AND SPECIFIC COURSES
Dall'Era Valerio's quality department consists of a team of 4 technicians with an average age of around 40 years. Quality managers receive continuous training, both internally within the company and externally. Internal training takes place through the transfer of knowledge from senior technicians - bearers of the company's more than 50 years of experience in the production of brass nuts and components - to younger ones. External training involves a minimum of 3 courses per year, with specific objectives: training methodologies and models, use of tools and techniques for production improvement, and, lastly, innovative quality control and nonconformity management techniques.
THE QUALITY CONTROL DEPARTMENT'S INSTRUMENTATION
The quality department is equipped with some of the most comprehensive and technologically advanced instrumentation in the area of measuring brass nuts, tees, bends, connections, inserts, ferrules, plugs, water connections, screws, finned nuts, knobs and heating tangs with sizes from 1/2″ to 2″.
Hardness testing instrument.
Specifically HBw2.5/62.5.
Optical gauge.
An instrument for dimensional inspection, incorporating a microscope particularly suitable for small radii and bevels. It is also used in the aerospace and electronics industries for its high accuracy.
Couloscope.
Instrument for precise measurement of the thickness covering the nut and other brass fittings.
Combined measuring station.
Allows you to perform roughness and 2D profile measurements at one location. Depending on the measurement task, you can activate the GD 25 translating unit for roughness estimation or the PCV translating unit for 2D profile evaluation.
Portable measuring station.
Allows the exact evaluation of roughness thickness on surfaces.
