Quality Assurance

Zero Compromise. Every surgical instrument is a critical tool that must perform flawlessly.

OUR COMMITMENT

100% Inspection Policy

Unlike mass-market manufacturers that rely on random batch sampling, Stepwin Industries enforces a 100% individual inspection policy.

Before any instrument is packaged for export, it is manually checked by our senior quality control engineers for dimensional accuracy, joint tension, surface finish, and cutting sharpness.

Rigorous Testing Protocols

Hardness Testing

Rockwell Hardness (HRC) testing ensures the steel has been heat-treated to the exact specifications required for its function.

Boil & Autoclave Testing

Instruments are repeatedly boiled and autoclaved to verify their resistance to standard sterilization processes without tarnishing or corroding.

Copper Sulfate Test

A chemical test to detect any free iron on the surface, ensuring the passivation process was 100% successful.

Cutting/Tension Tests

Scissors are tested on specialized materials to verify sharpness along the entire blade. Forceps are tested for precise alignment and tension.

Our QA Laboratory Capabilities

Spectrometry

Verifying the exact chemical composition of imported raw steel before production begins.

HRC Measurement

Calibrated Rockwell testing machines for precise hardness verification.

Corrosion Chambers

Salt spray and high-humidity chambers to accelerate environmental stress testing.
