After microstructure controls done by spectrometer and metal microscope, approved aluminum alloys poured by self-produced and designed PLC controlled automatic casting machines into also self-manufactured gravity casting tools. All processes are done according to our expected quality standard control plans. Following the heat treatment in temperature and time controlled ovens; pistons, passed hardness tests, are send to machining where every CNC controlled machines are approved pre-process for all *pistons*. Controls are done in climatized measurement laboratory settings which set at 20° Celsius according to control plans. The inspections on every single diesel engine piston’s ring carrier bond are processed two times through Ultrasonic unit before and after machining to ensure our quality policy. Every single manufactured piston undergoes final control process, and marked with Lazer at customer’s requests. After surface coating, pistons are packed according to customer’s demands
