Velo3D’s Rapid Production Solution earns AS9100D aerospace certification
Velo3D, Inc, headquartered in Fremont, California, USA, has announced that it has achieved AS9100D certification for its Rapid Production Solution (RPS) Quality Management System. This certification, issued by Eagle Certification Group (ECG), is a globally recognised benchmark. This affirms that Velo3D’s RPS processes meet the standards set by the International Aerospace Quality Group for aviation, space, and defence supply chains.
Velo3D’s RPS offers customers a pathway to move from prototyping directly into high-volume production of complex, mission-critical components. With the AS9100D certification, the company’s RPS offering is now recognised as compliant with the most rigorous quality management requirements, ensuring repeatability, traceability, and reliability at scale.
ECG, an accredited registrar recognised for aerospace quality management system audits, conducted the certification process. Velo3D reportedly underwent rigorous evaluation of its quality management system documentation, implementation, and overall effectiveness.
