Programming
At Gretna, our CNC programmers are Class A machinists. This ensures that every drawing given by the customer is meticulously programmed by a person who has experience as a machinist. Furthermore, they also have the role of shop supervisors, which means that they are available to support the machine operators who may have questions during the setup or machining process. This cross training allows work to flow seamlessly from the customers’ print to the production floor.
Inspection
Eliminating waste in the planning phase of a production process has an obviously beneficial impact on long-term profitability. Gretna’s inspectors have a combined 40 years’ experience of ensuring maximum efficiency, low cost and less waste, and they utilize state-of-the-art equipment, including a CMM, in a climate-controlled inspection room while adhering to a strict calibration schedule for quality assurance and control. Our inspection team gives top priority to ensuring quality is built into the production process by preventing or removing waste and recall issues.
