Best quality in laser processing

Quality in laser processing is a central component of the BLS corporate philosophy. The quality management system – certified according to ISO 9001 – aims at constant compliance with the highest quality standards and first-class results in laser material processing.

Certified quality management

Quality assurance is a top priority at BLS. Standardised QM processes ensure compliance with the highest standards in laser processing. As a series manufacturer for critical components with annual quantities of up to 1 million, BLS adheres to the strictest tolerances and quality criteria as an absolute standard. The quality management system is audited by independent institutions. BLS holds a DIN EN ISO 9001, a DIN EN ISO 14001, a DIN 2303 and a DIN EN ISO 3834 certification.

Quality in laser material processing

Long-standing partnerships with renowned research institutions and co-operation with institutes in a number of committees ensure that BLS, as a technological leader, continues to offer its customers state-of-the-art laser technology. An in-house measuring laboratory with metallography laboratory, 3D Zeiss measuring system and many other measuring instruments enable all important quality controls for laser welding, laser cutting, laser hardening and laser cladding. Automotive quality standards, such as the sampling of series components in accordance with the Production Part Approval Process (PPAP), are part of BLS’s standard procedure.
