For Tier 1 aerospace suppliers and defense contractors, the cost of a single non-compliant part can be astronomical. Beyond the immediate loss of material and labor, quality failures can lead to grounded fleets and damaged reputations. To mitigate these risks, the integration of robust inspection fixtures and check fixtures into the quality management system is non-negotiable. Statt Engineering provides the high-performance verification tools required to ensure that your components meet the most rigorous standards on the first try.
Precision in Dimensional Verification
An inspection fixture is more than just a holder: it is a high-precision tool designed to verify the dimensional accuracy of a part in its functional state. At Statt, we specialize in creating checking fixture solutions that allow for rapid, repeatable verification of complex geometries. These tools are designed to simulate how the part will interface with other components in a larger assembly.
Our facility utilizes advanced CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine) systems to verify the accuracy of the fixtures themselves. This ensures that the baseline for your quality control is bulletproof. For defense and space exploration projects, where compliance is the priority, having a physical check fixture provides a secondary layer of security that digital-only inspection cannot always match. We ensure that zero guesswork is involved in the verification phase.
Ensuring Consistency in Multi-Part Assemblies
In the aerospace sector, components are rarely stand-alone. They must interface perfectly with other parts in complex assemblies. Trim fixtures and drilling jigs ensure that holes and edges are positioned correctly relative to the part’s datum points. When these tools are designed alongside the part, the result is a seamless transition from the machine shop to the assembly floor. This is a core component of our commitment to technical excellence and partnership.
Statt Engineering understands that your internal teams are often out of bandwidth. We alleviate this capacity burden by handling the design and fabrication of these critical inspection tools. We function as a transparent extension of your engineering team, ensuring that every checking fixture we deliver is grounded in technical excellence and high-fidelity modeling. By providing these tools, we help you reduce audit risks and ensure that every delivery meets the mission-critical requirements of your project.
A Commitment to National Security Standards
Our identity is built on the foundation of technical expertise. We are AS9100, ITAR, and NIST compliant, ensuring that your data and your components are handled with the highest level of security. When you partner with Statt for your check fixtures, you aren’t just getting a tool: you are getting a partner who values your mission as much as you do. We thrive on high-difficulty projects and provide the elite quality required to eliminate quality anxiety in your supply chain. We treat your compliance requirements as our own, providing the bulletproof paperwork needed for defense applications.
