Quality Engineering  

Staying competitive today requires more planning and foresight than ever before. What was good enough yesterday is not good enough today. And what is good enough today will not be good enough tomorrow.

In this extremely competitive global market you need every possible advantage, including vendors that can keep pace with your changing needs.

At Harvey Vogel Manufacturing Co., we believe that quality products of high reliability are not created on the plant floor, they are created in the engineering, design and tooling stages. It is here that quality products become competitive products... and it is here that one metal fabricator is distinguished from another.

How can costs be lowered without sacrificing reliability? Can it be made lighter? Or simplified? Can operations be reduced or combined? Will a more finished product or component reduce other costs?

Harvey Vogel Manufacturing Co. has the metal stamping engineering expertise and know-how to answer these questions and keep your competitive edge in the marketplace. Our engineers are available to visit your facility to assist in the design of new products or reduce the cost of current products.

Ultimately we can produce your product -- from simple metal stampings to complex, value-added components and assemblies -- but the quality of the end product is what matters most. To assure the highest possible quality and the most reliable product Harvey Vogel Manufacturing Co.has developed extremely rigorous quality procedures and acquired "State of the Art" inspection and measurement systems. Linked with statistical tracking software and extensive logging systems we meet and often exceed the most stringent quality standards of our industry leading customers.

Automated Inspection

Our quality engineers and inspectors work closely with our tooling and development engineers to build quality in from the start. We then follow parts through every manufacturing process, including subcontract and outside specialty services, to assure that every aspect of the part is correct to your most demanding specifications. We are constantly improving processes and procedures for every product and building our experience into every new production run.

Brown & Sharpe Global Image 575 CMM

Using the Brown & Sharpe CMM with PC-DMIS Software we are able to program automated measurements of entire parts off the CAD solid models in DCC Mode. This advanced measurement technology improves accuracy and increases inspection capacity/thru-put while providing confident results.

 

OGP/Focus

State of the Art optical comparator for precise measurement and analysis of parts. Comparing the projected image to standard overlays reveals any inconsistencies and allows process corrections early in part development. Linked to sophisticated recording and measuring software this makes an unbeatable combination for assuring the highest quality in stamped parts.

Service

The goal: An efficient manufacturing plan that assures quality at the lowest possible cost.

Watch our Video! 

Experienced estimating and engineering, combined with an efficient production plan, assure quality products at the lowest possible cost. Harvey Vogel Manufacturing Co. provides full spectrum manufacturing services and management.

Our "WE CAN DO MORE FOR YOU" service starts with experienced estimating, engineering, and production planning. This is where quality starts, design problems are solved, and where efficiency is built into the production plan. It is a team effort that utilizes the experience and skills of many employees.

Highly experienced estimators work closely with engineering, tooling and production professionals to develop a manufacturing plan that takes advantage of every possible economy in materials, tooling strategies, and production equipment.

Experienced engineers and toolmakers use the latest CAD/CAM technology to design consistent quality into every part and assembly we produce. And they take particular pride in finding solutions to your tough design problems and developing more efficient methods to manufacture your products. We successfully produce parts other stampers will not attempt.

Working closely with you, and with each other, they offer their special expertise to ensure that you receive competitively priced parts--on time, every time--that consistently adhere to your specifications.

Experienced estimators provide fast and accurate quotations on incoming projects using computerized quote/estimating systems.

Advanced CAD/CAM technology is used to develop improved designs, reduce costs, and provide more accurate tooling. We can use CAD drawings in almost any format.

We can use most CAD drawing formats when attached to email as binary file attachments including but not limited to: DWG, DXF, IGS, PDF files; Solid Works and KeyCreator .CKD files. Solid models are preferred in STEP format - Prints are best in DXF. Pro-E files should be converted to STEP (for solid model) or DXF (for Prints). If you have any questions about a format please contact us at sales@harveyvogel.com

"In-house Tooling and Process Design to support your metal stamping requirements."

We also provide on-site engineering service at your plant.
