Typical components
Actuator housings, joint blocks, sensor mounts, end-effector hardware, frames, spacers, and precision brackets.
Design interfaces
Bearing seats, motor mounts, cable paths, fastener access, datum stacks, and moving clearances should be identified.
Prototype learning
Record assembly feedback, fit corrections, finish changes, and inspection points before moving to a repeat batch.
RFQ Review Checklist
| Part definition | 3D model, controlled 2D drawing, revision, material grade, surface finish, and quantity. |
|---|---|
| Critical requirements | Datums, tolerances, threads, mating faces, cosmetic surfaces, and inspection expectations. |
| Commercial context | Prototype or batch stage, delivery destination, packaging, assembly use, and preferred contact method. |
Buyer Questions
Should assembly files be included?
Yes, when available. A simplified assembly helps explain interfaces, motion clearance, and critical alignment.
What information helps with lightweight parts?
State the material, load or stiffness concern, wall constraints, finish, and the surfaces that cannot be changed.
