03 / CUSTOM ENGINEERING
From interface to assembly.
Define the assembly around your optical path, mechanical space and acceptance needs. Every stage has clear inputs and outputs.
Explore the process- 01
DEFINE
Understand the equipment and site
Start with equipment interfaces, mating parts, application, quantity and target dates. Identify both known requirements and open questions.
Output: project input checklist - 02
REVIEW
Design the route, not just the ends
Review port maps, fiber type, breakout lengths, materials and mechanical space. Define feasible configurations and validation needs.
Output: configuration and open items - 03
VALIDATE
Test the assumptions with a sample
Check assembly, channel maps and agreed tests against the sample plan. Document results before deciding what needs adjustment.
Output: sample review record - 04
RELEASE
Establish one delivery reference
Approve drawing revision, materials, labels, acceptance criteria and report format as the baseline for the order.
Output: approved drawing and specification - 05
DELIVER
Control change through delivery
Agree quantities, inspection, packing and documents in the order. Review material and process changes as specified.
Output: delivery and change requirements
START THE CONVERSATION
A drawing is a good place to start.
Bring an interface photo, BOM, part number or application description to prepare an engineering brief.
