Messtronik – First Article Inspection

The initial sampling of components of any type of production is one of our strengths.

Our trained employees are specialists in geometric product specifications (GPS for short). In addition to quality, the lead time for a measurement is the most important factor in contract measurement.

Today, the measurement programs and reports are prepared offline in advance. When the components arrive for initial sampling, they are immediately digitized and the report can be created within a few hours.

Messtronik has been one of the first service providers for initial sampling on the market since 1983.
