UV LED manufacturer SETi receives AS9100 certification
The manufacturer of nitride LEDS has met additional requirements necessary to serve the aviation, space and defence industries
Sensor Electronic Technology, Inc. (SETi), is now operating in full compliance of the International Aerospace quality standard AS9100:2009, Rev. C through NSF International Strategic Registrations.
AS9100 is an enhancement to the ISO9001 certification, which SETi received in December, 2009, and adds the additional requirements needed to address the aviation, space and defence industries.
This quality management system includes additional focus in the design and development functions of the business as well as a more sophisticated product quality control system. It provides the essentials of an effective traceability program from development through product sourcing.
“Achieving AS9100 certification is a true testament to our core values of continuous quality improvement and exceeding our customer’s expectations both in private and public sectors,” comments Remis Gaska, President and CEO of SETi.
SETi claims to have developed the broadest range of UV LEDs available on the market, with continuous spectral coverage from 240 nm to 355 nm.
The firm has extensive experience in developing specialised UV LED solutions for the defence and space industries; in 2007 SETi was announced as a DARPA/SBIR success story and in 2010, SETi’s UV LEDs were space qualified.
“This certification demonstrates our commitment to continue to develop and supply the world’s best UV LED technologies into aviation, space and defence programs,” concludes Gaska.
