Developing and prototyping a fastener design is an exciting and rewarding process but it is just the beginning, the next step in promoting your fastener patent is serial production followed by worldwide deliveries to a number of OEM and aftermarket companies. As a Tier 1 company, Auto Fasteners is your experienced partner in helping ramp up the serial production and tackling all of the following aspects of this step. There is always a significant need for innovations in this field but putting a new fastener design in serial production is not without its challenges. Here is how we can help.
Quality Control
You need to have a flawless production process, absolute quality and address any potential production issues momentarily. With such an approach, Auto Fasteners have gained an enormous amount of experience in quality control, production supervision, testing and inspecting the product, ensuring that every single fastener, regardless of how small it is, is produced according to OEM specifications. That is why we can help with primary production and make sure that it runs without any problems and according to schedule.
Labelling and Packaging
In modern industry, timely deliveries and correct labelling are essential in order to keep the production process on time. Due to the enormous amount of different fastener designs, one of the biggest dangers is incorrect labelling and packaging, which leads to confusion when the fasteners are delivered to the final customer. Even though it might seem like a small mistake, it is very costly and time-consuming since it could cripple the whole assembly line and cost OEM manufacturers a significant amount of money and time. We are very proud of our unique checking method. Every single fastener is accounted for, packed and properly labelled, which is extremely helpful not just for the final customer but also for tracking the packages and preparing for subsequent deliveries.

However, administration and legal compliance are essential for success.
