Quality Assurance & Standards
Engineering consistency into every layer of the
Wire-Laser Metal Deposition process
At Meltio, quality is not a department; it is the structural integrity of our operation. We understand that for our partners—whether in naval manufacturing or academic research—the value of Additive Manufacturing relies entirely on the repeatability of the results.
We operate under a rigorous Quality Management System (QMS) designed to ensure that our LMD technology meets the demanding requirements of industrial production environments.
ISO 9001:2015 Certification
Verified by SGS
Meltio has successfully implemented a Quality Management System in accordance with the ISO 9001:2015 standard. This certification covers the core of our operational lifecycle.
Certification body: SGS (Société Générale de Surveillance).
Standard: ISO 9001:2015.
Scope of certification: Design, production, and distribution of metal wire–based 3D printing systems and peripherals.
Why this matters to your production line: This certification is not merely administrative; it is a risk-mitigation tool for our customers. It validates that Meltio has standardized processes in place to ensure:
Traceability: From the sourcing of optical components to the assembly of the laser deposition head.
Consistency: Reducing variance between machines to ensure that a print file executed in Spain yields the exact same part density and geometry as one executed in the US.
Continuous improvement: A formalized feedback loop that channels R&D advancements directly into production updates.
Operational excellence & compliance
Beyond the ISO 9001:2015 standard, Meltio adheres to strict industrial safety and machine directives required for the global deployment of laser-based machinery.
-
CE Marking: All Meltio systems (M450, M600, Robot Cell) comply with European health, safety, and environmental protection standards.
-
Laser safety: Our systems integrate Class 1 laser safety enclosures (where applicable) and redundant safety interlocks to ensure operator protection during the wire-laser deposition process.
The Meltio Quality Policy
Our QMS is built on the principle of precision at scale. We are committed to:
-
Zero-defect mentality: Applying strict quality controls at the sub-assembly level before final machine integration.
-
Customer-centric evolution: Utilizing direct feedback from industrial integrators to refine our hardware and software ecosystems.
-
Supply chain integrity: Auditing our partners to ensure that every component—from standard wire stock to complex optics—meets our technical specifications.
