Direct Answers

Frequently Asked Questions: OEM & ODM

Transparent guidelines on Minimum Order Quantities, regulatory compliance, sample timelines, and global after-sales assurance.

What are your Minimum Order Quantities (MOQ) across customization tiers?
Our flexible manufacturing lines allow low-barrier entry. Tier 1 (Private label logo engraving, custom packaging, and custom model numbering) starts at an MOQ of just 5 units. Tier 2 (Optomechanical configuration, specific focal objective swapping, customized camera splits) requires 10–20 units. Tier 3 (Ground-up ODM optoelectronic development) is project-dependent based on upfront tooling and NRE requirements.
Does private labeling require my company to re-certify the medical device locally?
Chengdu CORDER maintains comprehensive ISO 13485, ISO 9001, and CE certifications. Depending on your target jurisdiction (e.g., EU MDR, US FDA, or regional health authorities), a private label distributor can often leverage our existing Technical Documentation Files (TCF) and Class I/Class IIa testing dossiers via an authorized "Own Brand Labeller" (OBL) or equivalence submission. Our dedicated regulatory affairs department provides complete dossier documentation to accelerate your local registration.
What is the sample lead time and evaluation fee structure?
For standard platform evaluation samples with private branding, turnaround is typically 10 to 15 business days. Custom optomechanical configuration samples take approximately 3 to 4 weeks. Sample charges are invoiced upfront and are 100% credited back toward your first formal batch production order.
What warranty and spare parts support are provided for custom OEM models?
All CORDER surgical microscopes include a comprehensive 3-year factory warranty, supplemented by lifetime technical support and guaranteed availability of critical optoelectronic and mechanical spare parts for at least 10 years. For OEM distributors, we supply designated maintenance kits (LED drivers, power boards, articulation dampers) directly with mass production batches.
Can you provide factory audits and technical training for our service engineers?
Yes. We welcome clients and third-party inspection agencies to audit our Chengdu manufacturing facility and optical cleanrooms at any time. Furthermore, we offer comprehensive online video training modules as well as on-site factory training for our partners’ service engineers, covering optical collimation, balance arm tensioning, and electronic diagnostics.
