Martindale Quality System™
Quality is not assumed. It is enforced by the system.
Every step documented. Every measurement recorded. Every part traceable.
The quality system
A fully digital production and quality workflow.
Martindale replaces traditional paper travelers with a digital system built on Fulcrum, Smartsheet, and FactoryWiz – tracking every manufacturing, inspection, and machine activity step in real time.
Parts cannot move forward until required inspections and documentation are completed.
Tools powering the system
Manages the step-by-step, detailed execution of each job
Provides a system level view of production flow
Real-time machine monitoring and utilization
Each job in the system:
Defines the full sequence of manufacturing and inspection steps
Requires measurement data to be entered at the point of work
Flags out-of-tolerance conditions immediately
Records who completed each step and when
The system delivers results
By embedding quality directly into the production workflow, issues are identified immediately, correct permanently, and prevented from reoccurring.
Live insight across the shop floor
Operators perform inspections in-station while parts are being produced. The digital traveler requires checks to be completed before the job advances. A final vision inspection confirms critical dimensions before any part ships.
This allows Martindale to:
Sequence manufacturing steps across the shop
Estimate lead times based on queued work
Adjust priorities when customer needs change
Balance workloads across machines and operators
Monitor machine utilization
Respond to downtime as it happens
