如何在几周而不是几个月内获得定制包覆成型线缆?在这一期由 Octopart 呈现的 CTRL+Listen 播客中,主持人 James 邀请了 Fillio 联合创始人 Sacha Fabien 做客。Fillio 是一家位于魁北克的低压包覆成型与线缆组装工厂,正致力于让这一缓慢而传统的工艺实现现代化。Sacha 分享了他如何因为寻找一款低外形 M8 连接器而开始在内部开发包覆成型工艺,为什么包覆成型是你几乎拥有的每一根线缆背后那个常被忽视的关键步骤,以及 Fillio 如何利用 3D 打印模具来降低工装成本并实现快速迭代。
他们深入探讨了包覆成型和线缆组装中的现实挑战——包括前期投入成本、交付周期,以及针对刚接触这一工艺的工程师所需的知识传授——同时也介绍了 Fillio 如何通过 Octopart API 获取实时库存、价格和交期数据,以更快完成报价。Sacha 和 James 还谈到了更宏观的话题:COVID 和关税如何推动硬件团队将制造回流本地并建立更具韧性的本地供应体系,机器人技术和物理 AI 在制造业中扮演什么角色,以及为什么一个可靠的本地供应商已经从过去“难以推销”的选择,变成采购方如今主动寻求的对象。如果你从事硬件开发、元器件采购,或关注供应链韧性,这一期就很适合你。
