3DEO, a metal 3D printing company based in Los Angeles, California, has received ISO 9001:2015 certification in order to further the commercialisation of its technology.

The company provides stainless steel components in the medical sector.

Matt Petros, 3DEO’s CEO, said: “The ISO 9001 certification is a terrific milestone for 3DEO. A strong quality management system is the backbone of any world-class production line. The ISO certification marks an important step in realising 3DEO’s long-term vision of leveraging next-generation technologies to build the world’s highest quality, data-driven factory of the future. In the previous generation of manufacturing, spot checks and random sampling were best of class. 3DEO is building a dynamic production line with real-time streaming data that allows ongoing monitoring and end-to-end closed-loop feedback. For 3DEO, ISO is the starting point of what we expect to become the next generation of manufacturing.”

ISO 9001 is the internationally recognised standard for a quality management system (QMS). The certification allows companies to operate more effectively on several different levels, including the ability to focus on customer requirements, ensure consistent production, and continuously improve all aspects of the production process.
