Integrated Bumper Specification Example for Construction Equipment: Fixed Type
Integrated Bumper Specification Example for Construction Equipment: Fixed Type
This is a worked specification for integrated bumper 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 construction equipment is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually packing that arrived crushed at the port.
Example specification
| Item | Integrated Bumper |
|---|---|
| Application | Construction Equipment |
| Version | Fixed Type |
| Base material | Silicone |
| Controlled dimensions | 3 key dimensions, recorded per lot |
| Tolerance band | ±0.2 mm |
| Finish | painted |
| MOQ | 200 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 7 working days, 3 days per revision |
| Compliance | REACH |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Silicone, 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
- gravity casting
- die casting
- injection moulding
- laser cutting
- anodising
- precision stamping
Where this example applies
Programmes that run fixed type most often specify this build for construction equipment. Related applications include workshop replacements, delivery vans, scooter fleets, aftermarket retail, construction equipment.
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
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 7 working days, and each revision round adds about 3 days once you have seen the first piece.
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.
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 the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the REACH-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
Send the part number, the annual volume and the target market, and we will come back with a specification and a sampling plan.
