Review our official manufacturing terms, order processing guidelines, and liability boundaries. Teleconix Inc. structures clear agreements to ensure smooth flexible pcb fabrication and reliable global delivery pipelines.
Quotations, Engineering Files, and Order Acceptance
We base all formal production pricing on the exact data parameters provided in your engineering packages.
- Data Accuracy: The buyer must provide complete Gerber or ODB++ datasets. We are not liable for circuit failures caused by incomplete layout layers or corrupted archive transmissions.
- Quote Validity: Standard factory price sheets remain valid for 30 days from the date of issue due to fluctuating raw polyimide and copper material costs.
- Order Confirmation: An order officially enters our production tracking pipeline only after payment clearance and full engineering review approval.
Engineering DFM Verification and Manufacturing Authorization
We enforce a strict design-for-manufacturing (DFM) verification gate to eliminate spacing conflicts and optimization issues before physical etching begins.
- Final EQ Approval: If our team identifies layout bottlenecks (such as insufficient annular rings or microvia spacing), we will issue an Engineering Question (EQ) form. Production pauses until the buyer approves our modifications in writing.
- Authorized Deviations: Once the buyer’s sign off on the final DFM layout template, this approved document overrides all previous custom flexible pcb design variations. We build the physical boards exactly to this approved template.
- Tooling Setup Costs: Tooling and setup fees cover the mechanical laser stencils and programming hours required by our fpc factory lines. All custom tooling fixtures remain the physical property of Teleconix Inc.
Production Lead Times, Shipping Boundaries, and Customs
We work to maintain consistent processing times for everything from a quick turn FPC prototype batch to high-volume commercial shipments.
- Lead Time Estimates: Manufacturing days count from the moment the final DFM blueprint is signed off, not from the initial payment date.
- Shipping Conditions: Standard shipments operate under EXW or FOB terms. Our delivery responsibility ends once the vacuum-sealed, moisture-proof cartons are handed over to the authorized courier (DHL, FedEx, UPS).
- Customs Clearance Responsibility: The buyer is responsible for import tariffs, customs entry paperwork, and local taxes at the destination port.
Defect Warranties and Limitation of Factory Liability
As a reliable FPC manufacturer, we stand behind our output with verified electrical test commitments.
- 90-Day Quality Warranty: We back all bare boards against manufacturing defects (such as internal open circuits or copper pad delamination) for 90 days following shipment delivery.
- Inspection Window: The buyer must report visual or dimensional trace defects within 14 days of receiving the package, prior to component population during SMT assembly.
- Limit of Liability: Our financial liability is strictly capped at the invoice value of the bare board batch. Teleconix Inc. is not liable for any secondary downstream costs, including third-party component losses, assembly labor fees, or project delay penalties.
