ISO/TS 16949 is the only standard recognized worldwide. It is related to quality management as it applies to any organization active in the automotive/motorcycle supply chain. It is based on the eight quality management principles (all fundamental to good business practice): Customer focus, Leadership, Involvement of people, Process approach, System approach to management, Continual improvement, Fact based decision-making, Mutually beneficial supplier relationships and fulfilment of customer specific requirements. 

We have gained this certificate in 2006 in order to focus on the automotive segment. There is a 3 yearly check up by an independent company that are able to decide whether you fulfil all requirements and whether there were improvements during the last 3 years. We are proud to announce that we have completed the audit successfully and that we will receive the ISO TS 16949 certificate for the coming three years.

Bending tool A5000 - A5300 - A6000 curtain rail
July 31, 2009 Bending tools A5000 - A5300 - A6000

In order to continuously provide you with instruments of good quality, we are optimizing our bending tools. The bending tool for our systems A5000, A5300 and A6000, has undergone a make-over.  

Where there used to be one bending tool for these 3 systems, we now have 2 separate tools. One for system A5000/A5300 and one for system A6000. These new bending tools guarantee a more precise curve and prevent deformation of the rail.  

Both bending tools consist of bending pliers, a bending inlay and bending strips. The bending pliers are universal and can be used for both systems. The bending inlay you should use depends on the rail. There is one tool for the A5000 and A5300 and one for the A6000. The bending strips, however, are specific for each rail individually.
