❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for custom ceramic sleeves?
A: For prototypes, MOQ can be as low as 5–10 pieces depending on complexity. Production MOQs vary by part size and material. Contact us with your requirements for a specific quotation.
Q: What is the typical lead time for prototypes?
A: Prototype samples typically ship within 2-4 weeks from drawing approval, depending on complexity and material availability.
Q: Where do you ship from?
A: We ship from our logistics center in Asia via DHL/FedEx/UPS. Delivery to most countries takes 2-4 business days after dispatch. Tracking information will be provided once your order ships.
Q: What is the difference between SC and LC series sleeves?
A: SC sleeves are designed for SC-type fiber optic connectors with larger outer diameters, while LC sleeves are for compact LC-type connectors with smaller form factors. Both offer excellent dimensional stability and low insertion loss.
Q: Do you offer design assistance?
A: Yes, our engineering team can help optimize your design for manufacturability (DFM) to meet your exact requirements.
Q: What file formats do you accept?
A: We accept PDF, STEP, DXF, and most common CAD file formats. Solid models are preferred for complex geometries.
