How do you actually order lens-case ODM process from a Chinese factory? Inquiry, quote, sample, deposit, production, QC, balance, ship. It sounds simple. The 5 steps below are what we actually do.
If you have not worked with the WL series before, this is the cheat sheet. WL1204-WL1504 are Small (under 200mm). WL1905-WL2808 are Medium (200-300mm). WL3812-WL5020 are Large (300-500mm). Within each tier, the model number encodes the length, width, height in cm.
| Model | Outer (mm) | Inner (mm) | Weight (g) | Material | Size Class |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| WL1905 | 190×190×45 mm | 180×160×40 mm | 250 g | PP | Medium |
| WL2005 | 195×170×46 mm | 190×135×40 mm | 175 g | PP | Medium |
| WL5020 | 500×400×200 mm | 480×360×185 mm | 2400 g | PP+GF | Pro |
The most common model for "lens-case ODM process" buyers is the WL1905 (190×190×45 mm OD, 250 g empty weight, PP body).
Four components define lens-case ODM process protection: shell (PP or PP+GF), foam (25 kg/m³ closed-cell PE), seal (silicone gasket around the lid), and pressure valve (automatic Gore-Tex membrane for IP67/IP68). Each component is tested. Each can be replaced if worn.
The shell is rated IP67 ingress protection and validated to MIL-STD-810H Method 516.8 (26 drops at 1.2m). Temperature range is -40 ~ +80 °C. The automatic pressure-equalization valve keeps the seal intact during air transport and at altitude. Latch is a double-throw design rated for 5,000 open/close cycles. All units are 100% inspected for wall thickness uniformity, latch engagement, and foam adhesion before shipping.
We maintain 200+ foam-cut reference designs for lens-case ODM process, covering camera bodies, drone kits, broadcast gear, military equipment, medical devices, and industrial tools. Send us your equipment list, we will match to the closest reference or draft a new layout free within 24 hours.
Top 5 mistakes we see in 2024: (1) Over-specifying size — buying WL5020 when WL3812 fits. (2) Choosing by price alone. (3) Skipping IP certification. (4) Ignoring latch type. (5) Not requesting lot certificates. All five add up to a 2-3x higher TCO over 5 years.
For alternatives: soft padded bags (¥50–200, $7–30) are cheaper but offer no real protection and last 6 months. Aluminum hard cases ($80–300) are heavier, prone to denting, and 2–4× the price. Carbon fiber cases ($300+) are overkill for 95% of B2B use cases. Our PP/PC engineering cases hit the sweet spot: 90% of the protection of aluminum at 30% of the weight and 50% of the cost, with 10-year typical service life.
Standard lens-case ODM process: MOQ 100 units, 30-day production, T/T 30/70. Custom: MOQ 500 units, 25-30 days mold + 30 days production. We support L/C for >$20,000 orders. Sample lead time 5-7 days, sample cost refundable on >2,000 unit order.

lens-case ODM process: Buyer Decision Tree
Visual summary of the key specifications. Print-friendly for buyer reference.
📹 60-second factory + product walkthrough. lens-case ODM process buyer guide walkthrough, equipment fitting, quote process
PP case body: 10+ year typical service life with normal use. Foam set: 5+ years before showing compression set. Latch: 5,000-10,000 open/close cycles. Hinge: 10,000 cycles. Replace foam when it no longer rebounds; replace case when latch or hinge fails.
We can re-cut foam for the same case. Cost: $20-50 per foam set depending on size. Lead time: 5-7 days. We keep your foam layout in our database for 3 years for easy re-order. If equipment changes significantly, you may need a different WL series.
Yes, custom colors available for orders >500 units. Color match to Pantone / RAL: $300 color matching fee, 7-10 days. Standard colors (black, gray, olive, orange) ship with no extra cost and 25-30 day lead time.
We use injection molding exclusively — denser walls, tighter tolerances, better IP rating. Blow molding produces hollow cases with thinner walls (1-2mm), cheaper, but not suitable for IP67 or MIL-STD-810H drop test. If a supplier offers 'injection' at 1/3 our price, it is likely blow-molded.
Yes for DDP and CIF. For FOB or EXW, we ship to a commercial port or address with customs broker. Residential delivery in some regions (EU, USA) requires a local broker to handle customs clearance.
