Adaptive Cruise Control Sensor Specification Example for Fleet Maintenance: Upgraded Version
Adaptive Cruise Control Sensor Specification Example for Fleet Maintenance: Upgraded Version
This is a worked specification for adaptive cruise control sensor in a upgraded version programme. It is the document we would send a buyer who asks what exactly they are getting: the material, the dimensions that are actually controlled, the finish, and the checks that happen before anything is packed.
The upgraded version version exists because the duty cycle on fleet maintenance is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually lead time that slipped twice before bulk started.
Example specification
| Item | Adaptive Cruise Control Sensor |
|---|---|
| Application | Fleet Maintenance |
| Version | Upgraded Version |
| Base material | Polypropylene |
| Controlled dimensions | 3 key dimensions, recorded per lot |
| Tolerance band | ±0.5 mm |
| Finish | zinc plated |
| MOQ | 3,000 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 10 working days, 3 days per revision |
| Compliance | ISO 9001 |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Polypropylene, in this example.
- List the dimensions that are actually controlled and the tolerance on each.
- Name the finish and what it has to survive.
- State the inspection level and who pays when a lot fails.
Processes involved
- rubber vulcanisation
- laser cutting
- anodising
- die casting
- electroplating
- cold forging
Where this example applies
Programmes that run upgraded version most often specify this build for fleet maintenance. Related applications include dealership service, racing teams, long-haul trucks, rental motorcycles, workshop replacements.
Checks before packing
- Dimensional report against the approved drawing.
- AQL 2.5 sampling on the finished lot.
- Finish inspection under agreed lighting.
- Carton drop test on the first lot of a new packing specification.
Questions buyers ask
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the ISO 9001-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 10 working days, and each revision round adds about 3 days once you have seen the first piece.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 3000 pieces per line.
What happens if a lot fails inspection?
The lot is re-inspected against the golden sample, and replacement pieces ship on the next available booking at our cost.
Send the specification you are working to and we will confirm what we can match, what we would change and why.
