## Sourcing pain points we solve

A robotics BOM routinely carries 50–200 custom machined parts — and a design that changes monthly, so slow quoting costs more time than machining itself. Joint housings demand 0.01–0.02 mm concentricity on harmonic drive interfaces, which most general shops cannot hold reliably. Volumes are awkward: 1–5 prototypes one month, a 500-piece pilot the next, and few vendors price both well. And the full machined BOM is essentially the blueprint of your robot, so IP protection has to be structural, not a promise.

## Typical parts

- Joint and actuator housings (harmonic/cycloidal interfaces)
- Structural frame plates and chassis nodes
- Motor mounts and gearbox adapters
- Sensor and encoder brackets
- End-effector fingers and tooling plates

## Certifications & standards

- **ISO 9001**: We understand robotics buyers expect ISO 9001-grade process discipline — documented inspection and revision control on every order.
- **CE**: We support CE compliance at machine level by supplying parts to print with the dimensional records your technical file needs.

_We understand and support these requirements; certification and documentation scope is confirmed per order — we do not claim to hold certifications on this page._
