Intake Manifold Specification Example for Agricultural Trailers: Touring Version
Intake Manifold Specification Example for Agricultural Trailers: Touring Version
This is a worked specification for intake manifold in a touring 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 touring version version exists because the duty cycle on agricultural trailers is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually a specification nobody had written down.
Example specification
| Item | Intake Manifold |
|---|---|
| Application | Agricultural Trailers |
| Version | Touring Version |
| Base material | Kevlar Composite |
| Controlled dimensions | 5 key dimensions, recorded per lot |
| Tolerance band | ±0.5 mm |
| Finish | zinc plated |
| MOQ | 200 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 14 working days, 3 days per revision |
| Compliance | ISO/TS 16949 |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Kevlar Composite, 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
- assembly line testing
- CNC machining
- surface grinding
- anodising
- gravity casting
- die casting
Where this example applies
Programmes that run touring version most often specify this build for agricultural trailers. Related applications include export programmes, municipal fleets, aftermarket retail, scooter fleets, dealership service.
Checks before packing
- Dimensional report against the approved drawing.
- AQL 1.5 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
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. ISO/TS 16949 documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
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.
Can you match an existing sample?
Send a sample and we will reverse-engineer the specification, then produce a counter sample for approval before any bulk starts.
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 14 working days, and each revision round adds about 3 days once you have seen the first piece.
Send the specification you are working to and we will confirm what we can match, what we would change and why.
