QTS develops highly demanding project for the food industry.

BACKGROUND

QTS was contacted by one of its main clients in Germany with the challenge of finding the best solution and the best partner to produce two very specific metal parts for the food industry.

THE PROJECT

The client provided the technical drawing and the intended application, and it was found that the parts involved were highly technically demanding, particularly in terms of quality and aesthetics. Even more so in a sensitive area such as food.

The project therefore involved two types of parts:

HANDLE

This is a turned part, manufactured in aluminium, with very specific geometrical characteristics that are fundamental to guarantee:

• The concavity of the upper part.
• The side ray all around.
• The perfection of the thread which, at the base, will serve as a connection to the second piece - the Axis.

Furthermore, as it was a highly aesthetic piece, it was also decisive to guarantee its perfect finish, being shiny, completely smooth and without any scratches.

To meet these demands, a special oil was added during the turning process to give it a polished appearance.

AXIS

This stainless-steel part is also manufactured by CNC turning.

SOLUTION PROPOSED

In terms of responding to the client's request, QTS was able to present and develop a solution in about six weeks, spread over:

• Search for and qualification of the best supplier for the manufacture of parts.
• Production of samples and delivery to the client for testing and validation.
• Serial production of the parts, after client validation.
• Logistical procedures, including packaging, labelling, and shipping to Germany.

 CONCLUSION

In the industry of plastic and metal components, QTS has all the conditions necessary to find the best suppliers for its clients.

Through this project aimed at the food industry, QTS has shown that it is well prepared, in any area of business, to present the best solution to produce parts that are not only technically but also aesthetically very demanding.

Even when projects are presented with high technical specifications, QTS can manage them in their entirety, thus saving the client time and work.

Not forgetting that, in addition, QTS:

• It offers technical advice, where necessary.
• Monitors all processes, with quality assurance through internal control.
• Ensures on-time delivery of parts.

“PROVIDING THE BEST PARTNERS” is our motto.
