Scaling cable assemblies from prototype to volume production introduces new challenges in consistency, documentation, materials, cost control, and manufacturability. Without the right processes, OEMs often experience quality drift which are subtle variations that accumulate into performance issues, field failures, or certification setbacks.
This guide explains how to prevent quality drift and achieve repeatable, stable cable production across global sites.
Common root causes include:
These issues multiply when scaling across regions.
