Additional Services at the QP Group
Extending precision beyond measurement.

At QP Group, our machining facilities are designed to meet the highest standards of precision, repeatability, and efficiency. We operate a wide range of CNC milling and turning centers, fully automated systems with bar loaders for serial production, and conventional lathes and milling machines for flexible, customized operations. This combination gives us complete control over the manufacturing process, from material preparation to finishing, allowing us to react quickly to complex or changing requirements without compromising quality.

Our workshops also include precision saws and multi-tank cleaning systems, enabling the integration of machining, preparation, and surface treatment under one roof. By consolidating these capabilities in-house, we eliminate logistical delays and reduce the risk of miscommunication between suppliers, ensuring that every part we produce maintains consistent quality from start to finish.

Each project begins with a clear understanding of the customer’s requirements, geometry, tolerances, surface finish, and intended use. Based on this input, our engineers define the optimal machining strategy, select the appropriate tools and materials, and program our CNC systems for maximum accuracy. Throughout production, we apply strict quality checks, using dimensional and visual inspections to verify compliance with the technical drawings.

These capabilities allow us to design and manufacture custom measuring devices, mechanical parts, and technical components that support your measurement, testing, and production processes. Whether you need a single prototype, a custom fixture, or a small production batch, every component is produced to tight tolerances and validated against customer-specific standards. We treat each part not merely as a physical object but as a functional contribution to your overall process reliability and performance.

What truly sets QP Group apart, however, is not just what we can build, but how we can adapt.
All machining, reworking, and adjustment operations are performed entirely in-house, allowing us to respond swiftly to last-minute design changes, urgent prototype updates, or immediate requalification needs during customer audits.
This agility gives our clients a decisive advantage, particularly when deadlines are tight or technical parameters shift unexpectedly.

Our engineers, machinists, and metrologists work in continuous collaboration, forming a direct link between design, manufacturing, and quality assurance. This interdisciplinary approach ensures that every geometric adjustment, every reworked surface, and every produced part not only meets dimensional specifications but also aligns perfectly with its intended measurement or testing context.

Through this close cooperation, we transform machining from a simple support activity into a strategic pillar of the quality process. Each machining task becomes an opportunity to strengthen control, traceability, and precision across the entire production chain. By combining technical mastery with proactive communication, QP Group ensures that precision is not only achieved but sustained, in every part, every project, and every partnership.

Every precise measurement depends on a reliable foundation. At QP Group, we design and build custom fixtures, gauges, and testing devices that provide stability, repeatability, and ergonomic handling for a wide range of applications. From modular fixtures used for multiple parts to highly specialized systems designed for tight tolerances, our solutions are engineered to ensure consistency in every measurement or inspection step.

Our design philosophy combines technical rigor and practical usability. We consider alignment, clamping force, material selection, and thermal stability to ensure that fixtures perform reliably under real production conditions.
In collaboration with our metrology department, we validate every fixture to confirm that its geometry supports the intended measuring accuracy.

These fixtures are not limited to measurement tasks, many are used for assembly, testing, or validation within customer production lines, helping ensure that quality and efficiency go hand in hand. Each solution is designed to last, delivering repeatable performance and simplifying future calibration or adaptation needs.

Turning an idea into a tangible, testable part requires experience, precision, and speed. Our prototyping services transform concepts into fully machined components, ready for inspection, testing, or integration into production.

We handle all stages, from CAD design and material selection to machining, finishing, and verification.
This service is particularly valuable for pre-series validation, allowing customers to evaluate new designs under real operating conditions before mass production. Our ability to move seamlessly between design, manufacturing, and inspection ensures that prototypes are accurate, functional, and representative of final product performance.

Every reliable test result begins with a properly prepared sample.
At QP Group, we prepare testing specimens and samples that comply with material testing and metrology standards.
Whether for tensile testing, hardness analysis, or microstructural evaluation, our technicians ensure the required geometry, finish, and surface condition are precisely met.

We understand that test results are only as reliable as the samples they’re based on. That’s why every specimen undergoes dimensional verification and visual inspection before delivery. Our close coordination with the QP Material Testing department guarantees that prepared samples integrate perfectly into subsequent laboratory processes, ensuring traceability, repeatability, and confidence in every result.

Our cleaning solutions are designed for both flexibility and repeatability. During trial cleaning, process parameters, such as temperature, pressure, and detergent composition, are optimized for the specific component. Once validated, these parameters are transferred to series cleaning, ensuring consistent performance for larger production volumes. In every case, our goal is the same: to deliver components that meet the highest technical cleanliness standards while maintaining cost efficiency and environmental responsibility.

The strength of QP Group lies in integration.
Our additional services are closely connected with our four main areas of expertise, Metrology, Material Testing, Consulting, and 100% Check, creating a continuous loop of feedback, improvement, and performance. When machining supports measurement or testing, our teams coordinate directly with the respective departments to ensure consistency between physical parts and analytical results.

When reworking or cleaning is required as part of a containment action, it’s performed in close collaboration with our 100% check specialists, who oversee inspection and documentation. And when process optimization or long-term corrective actions are needed, our Consulting division provides structured guidance and implementation support.

This interdisciplinary approach ensures that every technical task, from sample preparation to cleaning, contributes directly to your overall quality objectives. With QP Group, you don’t just receive an isolated service; you gain access to a coordinated ecosystem of expertise, where every discipline reinforces the other. The result: shorter lead times, fewer interfaces, and more reliable outcomes across your entire value chain.

In today’s manufacturing environment, agility is a competitive advantage. Our internal structure allows us to respond quickly to urgent requests, reconfiguring equipment or reallocating resources in a matter of hours. Because all services, machining, cleaning, preparation, and inspection, are performed within the same organization, communication is fast, and decisions are immediate.

This efficiency is not achieved at the expense of quality; every process remains documented, validated, and fully traceable. The result is a service that’s not only fast but reliably repeatable, no matter how specific or demanding your requirements may be.

At QP Group, we view sustainability as a technical discipline.
By focusing on reworking rather than replacement, we extend component life and minimize waste. Our cleaning systems are designed for energy efficiency and solvent recovery, reducing both environmental impact and operating costs. Each additional service we perform is aligned with our commitment to responsible production, ensuring that quality and sustainability develop hand in hand.

We don’t see additional services as static support; we see them as a field for innovation.
Every rework, fixture, or cleaning project generates insights that feed back into our engineering and consulting divisions. This closed feedback loop allows us to constantly refine processes, develop new methods, and stay ahead of industry expectations. Through this philosophy, QP Group ensures that efficiency, precision, and sustainability remain central to every technical operation.

A key aspect that distinguishes the QP Group from many suppliers is our accreditation as a testing laboratory according to ISO 17025. This standard sets strict requirements for the competence of laboratories that offer testing services. In the context of our testing services, this means that we undergo regular audits that review both our technical procedures and our internal quality processes. Only if all requirements are successfully fulfilled will we maintain our status as an accredited testing laboratory.

For our customers, the ISO 17025 accreditation is a clear signal that all measurement and test results are based on valid, scientifically sound methods and are internationally comparable. An accredited testing body must ensure that all devices are calibrated in a traceable manner and that all measurement results are given with defined uncertainties. This creates transparency and trust – especially in industries where even minimal deviations can lead to a high error rate or significant safety risks.

The accreditation is also an incentive for our entire team to continuously work on the further development of the test methods and measurement methods used. We monitor the market, integrate new technologies and invest in laboratory equipment so that we can always offer our customers modern, reliable measurement solutions. In addition, we maintain an exchange with expert committees and organizations in order to be able to react quickly to changes in standards or technological trends.

At the QP Group, quality and precision are at the heart of everything we do. We adhere to internationally recognized standards to ensure accuracy and compliance in all our measurement services. Our certifications demonstrate our commitment to providing high-quality, reliable, and standardized measurement solutions to our customers worldwide.
