AS9100 and ITAR Certified Machine Shop for Aerospace & Defense

A machine shop converts metal stock into parts or semi-finished components that meet defined drawings, dimensions, tolerances, and material requirements. It uses equipment and inspection methods to cut, shape, drill, mill, turn, or otherwise prepare material for its intended application. For critical industries, machine-shop work also helps reduce production handoffs and supports traceability, quality documentation, and repeatable results.

Aero-Vac provides precision machining that delivers semi-finished and near-net-shape parts in-house. This capability can reduce the number of suppliers a customer must coordinate when purchasing alloy material and preparing it for the next manufacturing stage. The team also supports custom cuts and unusual sizes, helping customers obtain material closer to the dimensions required by their specifications.

Yes. Aero-Vac Alloys & Forge, Inc. holds AS9100 certification, along with ISO 9001:2008 certification. AS9100 is a quality-management standard widely used across the aviation, space, and defense supply chain. Certification supports structured quality practices for managing requirements, documentation, process control, and continual improvement in work involving demanding material and manufacturing specifications.

Aero-Vac works with aerospace and defense customers and can discuss program-specific ITAR requirements and documentation needs during the quoting process. Because export-control obligations can vary by material, technical data, destination, customer role, and end use, customers should provide applicable purchase-order requirements early. This allows the team to evaluate the request, coordinate appropriate handling, and clarify the information needed before order fulfillment.

Yes. Aero-Vac’s in-house saw-cutting department processes both its own inventory and customer-supplied material. Providing material can be useful when a customer has a specific heat, form, or approved source that must be retained. Before processing begins, confirm the material identification, desired dimensions, condition, and any documentation or handling requirements associated with the job.

Aero-Vac offers thermal processing to bring material to the metallurgical condition called for by a customer’s specification. When required by volume or turnaround conditions, the company also partners with outside NADCAP heat treaters. Customers should provide the alloy, target condition, applicable specification, required test data, and delivery timing so the appropriate processing path can be planned.

To receive a useful custom quote, provide the material grade, product form, dimensions, quantity, drawing or specification, required processing, and requested delivery date. Include any traceability, testing, certification, or documentation requirements at the outset. Aero-Vac’s team can help with custom cuts and odd sizes, then coordinate sourcing or in-house processing based on the complete requirement.

Yes. Aero-Vac has experienced exporters and ships to destinations around the world. International orders should include the final destination, consignee information, requested shipping method, and any known import or export documentation requirements. For controlled or highly technical projects, sharing program requirements early helps the team assess order handling, timing, and documentation needs before shipment.
