The Manufacturing Process: Precision from Start to Finish
At AVF Decolletage, every component’s journey — from raw material to finished part — follows a well-defined and ISO-controlled process.
1️⃣ Material Selection
We start by sourcing certified materials from global suppliers.
Brass (C36000, C17300, C54400, C19160), stainless steel (303, 316, 416), and aluminum (6061, 2017) are commonly used depending on conductivity, corrosion resistance, or strength requirements.
Each batch undergoes chemical verification and material certification review before entering production.
2️⃣ Swiss CAM & CNC Machining
Our dual approach — combining Swiss CAM for speed and Swiss CNC for complexity — allows us to achieve high precision at competitive cost.
-
Swiss CAM delivers high-speed production for simpler geometries like connector pins and spacers.
-
Swiss CNC handles complex profiles, threads, and slots with precision up to ±0.005 mm.
This hybrid production model gives customers the best of both worlds — efficiency and flexibility.
3️⃣ Secondary Processes and Finishing
Machining is just the beginning. We add value through in-house secondary operations, ensuring every component meets its final functional and cosmetic requirements.
-
Threading, drilling, slotting, and bending.
-
Heat treatment for strength and wear resistance.
-
Gold, nickel, tin, or silver plating for conductivity and corrosion protection.
-
Surface finishing and polishing for aesthetic appeal.
Every process follows RoHS and REACH standards to meet international compliance.

4️⃣ Quality Control and Inspection
Precision without verification is incomplete.
That’s why AVF Decolletage employs a multi-layered inspection process supported by advanced measuring technology:
-
CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine) for dimensional verification.
-
Mitutoyo calipers and gauges with 0.001 mm accuracy.
-
Keyence vision inspection for automated optical analysis.
-
Microscopic surface checks (10X–40X magnification).
-
XRF coating analysis for plating consistency.
Each production batch includes First Article Inspection (FAI), in-process inspection, and final approval reports — all documented under our ISO 9001:2015 system.
