Able Electropolishing Certifications

At Able, our customers can trust that we will treat their parts with care. As part of being an ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 registered company, and a supplier to medical device and aerospace customers across the country, Able Electropolishing has completed the validation of its electropolishing and passivation processes in accordance with “Quality Management Systems – Process Validation Guidance” authored by SG3 and endorsed by The Global Harmonization Task Force. Able chose this document as a foundation for its process validation because of the representation of individuals in medical device regulatory agencies.

The guidance obtained from this document was used to assist Able in continuing to improve our quality management systems and to address the requirements of our manufacturing customers in all industries, but specifically in the medical device industry, which we consider to have the tightest controls and regulations surrounding process validation.
