Quality Assurance
Pakistan Cables guarantees its Alum-ex sections
in the same manner as we guarantee our cables. Quality consideration
is reflected in all phases right from the selection of raw
material to delivery of finished products.
Best Raw Materials
ALUM-EX sections are extruded from imported prime
quality billets of aluminium alloy 6063, the internationally
recommended alloy for architectural applications. The chemicals
used for the anodizing process are of very high quality &
German origin, thus ensuring a trouble free product.
Incoming Material Inspection
All raw materials, though received from renowned suppliers,
are subject to strict inspection before being issued for manufacturing.
No compromise is made on quality.
Process Control
At each stage of production, strict quality control is observed.
Latest & sophisticated equipment/instruments are employed
to control & maintain important process parameter like
temperature, pressure etc.
Imported dies are used for aluminium extrusions so that critical
product parameters like surface finish, uniform thickness
& shape can be maintained.
A fully automatic aging oven is used for heat treatment of
aluminium after extrusion to give the aluminium section the
required strength. The aluminium extrusions conforms to ASST,
B221 & BS-1474.
After heat treatment, aluminium sections are anodized &
electro-colored in a modern plant, which comprises of 16 process
baths. The anodizing process conforms to BS-3987 & AAMA
class I specifications.
Different process parameters like temperature and concentration
of various tanks are carefully maintained & controlled.
Pakistan Cables has a laboratory for analysis of different
process chemicals. With the help of the laboratory, consistency
in the process & product parameter is ensured.
Final Inspection
The finished product is subjected to following checks :-
- Anodic coating measurement.
- Sealing measurement.
- Color tone matching.
Product & quality
assurance activities are managed by well qualified, experienced
& adequately trained professionals. |
