Case Study: Domestic Fastener & Forge, Inc. achieves real-time SPC and saves 2 man-hours/day with Zontec's Synergy 1000

Domestic Fastener & Forge, Inc. Uses Synergy 1000 SPC Software as a Differentiator with Customers

Domestic Fastener & Forge, Inc. (DFFI) is a short‑run fastener manufacturer that supplies cold‑headed, hot‑headed and CNC specials to fill inventory gaps. Facing a government contract requirement to implement Statistical Process Control and an inefficient, manual SPC process that often took longer than the run itself, DFFI turned to Zontec and its Synergy 1000 SPC software to meet customer requirements and improve in‑process control.

Zontec implemented Synergy 1000 to provide real‑time SPC, operator‑friendly visual cues, and email alerts for out‑of‑spec conditions, with a seamless upgrade path and cross‑platform flexibility. As a result DFFI met its SPC obligations, reduced paperwork, became more proactive in decision‑making, improved audit readiness, and saved about 2 man‑hours per day while using Synergy as a sales differentiator.
