How do you actually order underwater-rov-case manufacturing 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.
For your reference, here are the WL series models we typically use for underwater-rov-case manufacturing process applications. Outer dimensions (OD) are measured to the outside of the case; inner dimensions (ID) reflect the usable cavity after subtracting wall thickness. All in millimeters; imperial dimensions in our catalog PDF.
| Model | Outer (mm) | Inner (mm) | Weight (g) | Material | Size Class |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| WL2005 | 195×170×46 mm | 190×135×40 mm | 175 g | PP | Mini Drone |
| WL3812 | 380×320×120 mm | 365×280×110 mm | 1100 g | PP+GF | DJI Mavic Series |
| WL6030 | 600×450×300 mm | 575×420×280 mm | 4200 g | PP+GF | Drone + Accessories Kit |
The most common model for "underwater-rov-case manufacturing process" buyers is the WL2005 (195×170×46 mm OD, 175 g empty weight, PP body).
Cheap protective cases use 15 kg/m³ foam that bottoms out after 6 months. Our underwater-rov-case manufacturing process uses 25 kg/m³ foam rated for 5+ year use. The difference is in the cell structure: 25 kg/m³ cells rebound after compression, 15 kg/m³ cells do not. We have tested both. The cheaper foam fails.
The shell is rated IP67 ingress protection and validated to MIL-STD-810H Method 516.8 (26 drops at 1.5m). Temperature range is -30 ~ +70 °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.
Our underwater-rov-case manufacturing process buyers in 2024 include: 35% camera operators / filmmakers, 25% drone pilots / commercial UAS, 15% broadcast / TV stations, 10% military / law enforcement, 10% medical / first responders, 5% industrial / OEM. Profile data from 2024 buyer survey.
Cheap underwater-rov-case manufacturing process: $3-8/unit, 6-month lifespan, 200-cycle latch, 15 kg/m³ foam. Our underwater-rov-case manufacturing process: $5-15/unit, 10-year lifespan, 5,000-cycle latch, 25 kg/m³ foam. Over 5 years, our case is 4-5x cheaper per year of use. Total cost of ownership wins.
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 underwater-rov-case manufacturing process: MOQ 50 units, 25-day production, T/T 30/70. Custom: MOQ 500 units, 25-30 days mold + 25 days production. We support L/C for >$20,000 orders. Sample lead time 5-7 days, sample cost refundable on >2,000 unit order.
We have 150+ custom design cases since 2014. Whatever your question is, we have probably seen it before.
Established 2014. 13,000 sqm factory in Fusha Industrial Park, Shenzhen, Guangdong. 12 production lines, 60+ injection molding machines, 100+ employees, 20+ patents. Monthly capacity 80,000 units. Annual export revenue 8M+ USD to 47 countries.
Direct from the OEM. Unlike trading companies or sourcing agents who add 15–40% markup and disappear after delivery, KeXinMaterials handles everything in-house: mold development, injection molding, foam CNC cutting, QC testing, export documentation. Our 2024 buyer survey showed 87% repeat-order rate and 0.3% defect rate across 47 countries.

📹 60-second factory + product walkthrough. underwater-rov-case manufacturing process buyer guide walkthrough, equipment fitting, quote process
OEM: you design, we manufacture. ODM: we design (based on your use case), you brand. OEM requires 3D model / spec sheet from you. ODM requires usage description only. OEM MOQ 500, ODM MOQ 200. Both lead time 25-30 days for tooling.
Yes. Free samples for standard WL series (you pay shipping, $30-80 via DHL). 5-day sample lead time. Custom samples: $200-500 fee (refundable on order >2,000 units), 7-15 day lead time.
No, you can supply your own foam. We can ship the case without foam (15% cost reduction) or with custom foam (your spec). Our standard foam is 25mm base + 10mm convoluted lid, CNC-cut to 0.5mm tolerance.
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.
