Electric Motor Speed Controller Specification Example for Municipal Fleets: Fixed Type
Electric Motor Speed Controller Specification Example for Municipal Fleets: Fixed Type
This is a worked specification for electric motor speed controller in a fixed type 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 fixed type version exists because the duty cycle on municipal fleets is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually a supplier who changed material without saying so.

How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Forged Aluminium, 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
- cold forging
- assembly line testing
- anodising
- ultrasonic cleaning
- shot blasting
- surface grinding
Where this example applies
Programmes that run fixed type most often specify this build for municipal fleets. Related applications include boat trailers, racing teams, off-road bikes, aftermarket retail, workshop replacements.
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 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.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 500 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
How is packing specified?
Individual packing, inner box quantity and carton marking are confirmed at quotation stage so the cartons arrive ready for your warehouse.
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the RoHS-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
Send the specification you are working to and we will confirm what we can match, what we would change and why.
