Tru-Edge Grinding maintains a documented and implemented quality system that satisfies the needs and requirements of our customers. We are currently "compliant" to the ISO standards. Inspection and testing is conducted when regrinds and/or manufacture tools are at significant stages of production. Measurement and test equipment calibrations are repeated and documented at intervals set by management and are certified and traceable to the NIST standards. Tru-Edge Grinding believes continuous improvement never stops, and as we grow this takes the lead. This being said, we are able to produce the type of services and products that perform as well as we promote. Tru-Edge Grinding welcomes customers to come visit and audit our quality program.
