Manufacturing Scope

Four Ways Brands and Buyers Work With Our Plant

OEM, ODM, private label or volume supply — the same in-house engineering and quality system behind every program.

Manufacture to your approved specification

Already have drawings, specs or a reference sample

OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturing): We manufacture to your approved specification — your drawings, dimensions, materials, finish and packaging. You own the design and intellectual property.

Build to Your Specification

Develop the vise with our engineering team

Have a product idea or market positioning

ODM (Original Design Manufacturing): Our engineering team develops the vise design, construction, finish and packaging from your brief — whether that is a market concept, performance target or adaptation of a proven model. Factory proposes the design; buyer approves before production.

Develop a Vise From Your Brief

Brand a proven bench vise model with your logo

Need to launch a proven product fast, branded

Private Label: Your brand, finish and packaging on an existing validated model — no tooling development, no structural changes. Fastest route from concept to delivery.

Launch on a Proven Platform

Configure workshop package deals

Procuring for garages, schools or institutional workshops

Large-run production for distributors, hardware chains, tool retailers and industrial buyers, with locked specifications, batch traceability and consistent fit and finish across reorders.

Manufacturing Capability

Inside the Plant

Every process below runs in-house. Nothing critical is subcontracted.

Casting & Forging

Ductile iron and forged steel bodies cast and hammered on site, with precision machining to 0.05 mm positional accuracy and computer-optimized nesting to control material waste.

CNC Machining

CNC-machined jaw faces, guides and slide channels hold tight tolerances for smooth, accurate clamping. Hardened jaws reach 58–62 HRC.

Heat Treatment

Jaws and screw rods induction-hardened to 58–62 HRC for long service life, with controlled hardness verified on every batch.

Surface Finish

Powder coating, electrostatic painting or brushed finish in your colors and texture — with RoHS-compliant materials and custom logo marking.

Assembly and Adjustment

Each vise follows a 100-point assembly checklist signed off by the line lead — slide, screw, swivel base, jaw alignment and handle fitment.

Export Packing

Each vise is oiled, wrapped and export-grade packed, with printed retail cartons and molded inserts available.

Quality Control

How Every Vise Is Verified

Quality is a documented process, not a promise. Here is what happens to your order before it ships.

  1. 01

    Incoming Material QC

    Iron, steel, jaw inserts and hardware are quarantined until QC sign-off. Castings and stock undergo hardness, tensile and chemical-composition testing before any batch enters the line.

  2. 02

    In-Process Checkpoints

    QC checkpoints at every production stage, with machined samples pulled and dimensionally verified against the batch standard.

  3. 03

    Clamping & Hardness Test

    Every jaw face is hardness-tested to 58–62 HRC, and every sliding screw is cycled to verify smooth, accurate clamping with no binding across the full opening.

  4. 04

    Structural Verification

    Clamping force, jaw parallelism, slide alignment and swivel-base lock are verified against the specification before final inspection.

  5. 05

    Final Inspection

    100-point checklist per vise, plus dimensional and weight verification against the approved sample.

  6. 06

    Batch Traceability

    Every material lot receives a unique ERP number. Each vise’s bill of materials links back to the original supplier batch. Records retained 10 years.

Development Process

From Specification to Finished Product

Requirement intake through finished goods — every step inside our own plant.

  1. 01

    Requirement Intake

    We collect your specification, target market, compliance requirements and volume forecast. NDA signed before any file exchange.

  2. 02

    Engineering Review

    Jaw width, opening, body material, screw design and finish are assessed for manufacturability. You receive a written report with cost drivers identified.

  3. 03

    Sample Development

    A prototype is machined and assembled to confirm geometry, clamping feel, finish and weight. Ships in 7–14 days.

  4. 04

    Sample Approval

    You sign off on the physical sample. Nothing enters production until the golden sample is approved and archived as the batch reference.

  5. 05

    Batch Production

    Manufactured in our own plant under the QC process above, with batch traceability to material lot level.

  6. 06

    Export-Ready Delivery

    Oiled, wrapped, boxed, documented and handed over ready for export.

The approved sample is the contract. Every vise in the batch is measured against it.

FAQ

Manufacturing FAQ

Questions buyers ask before placing an order — answered with our actual terms.

OEM: we manufacture to your approved specification — your drawings, dimensions, materials, finish and packaging. You own the design and intellectual property. ODM: our engineering team develops the vise from your brief — whether a market concept, performance target or adaptation of a proven model — and you approve before production. Private label puts your brand on an existing validated model with no structural changes. Both OEM and ODM routes run through the same plant, QC system and export team.
Standard volume production starts at 90–100+ pcs per approved configuration; heavy-duty and specialty models run at 20–50 pcs. Co-branding small bulk starts at 5–10 pcs; pilot batches from 20–50 pcs.
25–35 days from confirmed PO and deposit. Custom tooling adds 15–20 days for mold development. Expedited production is available for rush orders.
ISO 9001 for quality management, CE certification for models destined for EU markets (scope confirmed per project), ISO 14001 for environmental management, and RoHS documentation provided with every order. Audits are welcome.
Yes. We welcome buyer audits and work regularly with SGS, TÜV, BV and Intertek. Third-party inspection can be arranged at any production stage — incoming material, in-process or final inspection — and inspection reports are provided on request.
