Consulting

Process: the act of taking something through an established set of procedures to convert it from one form to another.

Control: to regulate, direct, restrain, determine.

"If you can't describe what you are doing as a process, you don't know what you're doing." - W. Edwards Deming

     Process control is the holy grail of chemical processing or metal finishing.  To the extent one can control the process, one can reliably predict results of the process, providing the definition that describes the process is sufficient. "That is where process control must begin; in the description or definition.  Without knowing the process that creates a desired outcome, the outcome becomes mere chance." Kevin Bodily - METALAST International, AAC 2010 proceedings.

     LightMetals Industries specializes in understanding and teaching process control methods and systems which can facilitate operational excellence and lead to Nadcap accreditation. Nadcap is the premier accreditation program in the world today.  Achieving accreditation, particularly for the first time is arduous and demanding; for both personnel and resources.  Expert consulting can ease the pain and accelerate the process.  The implementation of proper systems of chemical process control, testing and measurement in compliance with various specifications, are the life-blood of Nadcap.  With increased control comes increased quality levels. And in a tough global economy, competitive advantages will set many companies apart from the status quo.
