Cast Iron Quality Control Workflow
Chandar's quality-control page explains process stages buyers can discuss during RFQ without claiming unverified certifications, test results, or guaranteed compliance.
Inspection stages
Quality steps to confirm before order placement
Use these stages as a checklist for RFQ discussion, sample approval, packaging planning, and pre-shipment review.
- 01
Raw material review
Confirm material expectations and batch requirements before production starts.
- 02
Mold inspection
Check mold condition and fit before casting to reduce dimensional and surface risks.
- 03
Casting process control
Monitor casting workflow and visible defects during production.
- 04
Grinding and finishing check
Review edges, contact surfaces, and buyer-specific finishing requirements.
- 05
Surface treatment inspection
Check coating or surface finish requirements according to confirmed product specifications.
- 06
Packaging and pre-shipment review
Inspect packaging method, labels, carton/pallet needs, and shipment-ready condition.
Buyer concerns
Questions to align before production
The right quality plan depends on product application, surface finish, tolerance expectations, testing requirements, packaging, and destination market.
Third-party inspection
Third-party inspection support is [to be confirmed]. Buyers should list inspection expectations during RFQ review.
Testing requirements
Food-contact, coating, or market-specific testing requirements should be stated in the RFQ so the factory can confirm feasibility.
Verified document on file
Testing evidence should stay product-scope specific
The current source folder includes one readable SGS test report. The site treats it as a product-scope test document, not a broad factory certification or blanket compliance promise.
