Assembly & Packaging

Tooling in 30–45 days. You own it, and we never make your design for a competitor.

Upsilon assembles tubes, parts and packaging on one line: spring clips, force adjustment, parts, function testing, final inspection and packing, with every step inspected. We ship semi-finished goods or retail-ready products, and parts from your other suppliers can come here to be inspected, packed and shipped together.

The Assembly Line: Six Steps, All InspectedChoosing an Alloy

Great parts mean little if they are assembled wrong. A telescoping product earns its value on the assembly line.

01

Fit spring clips

Phosphor bronze clips go inside; aluminum and carbon fiber also get plastic clips.

02

Adjust the force

Each pole is set to the feel you want.

03

Fit parts

Grips, end caps, connectors, locking and functional parts.

04

Function test

Smooth extension, locking, retention, appearance.

05

Final inspection

One more check before shipping.

06

 Packing

To export standard,

or in your retail packaging.

AssemblyChoosing an Alloy

Parts installation

Grips, end caps, connectors, locking and functional parts. Parts you send us can be installed too.

Force adjustment

Each pole is adjusted individually to the feel you want.

Function testing

Smooth extension, locking, retention and appearance, tested pole by pole.

Eco-friendly adhesive: you won’t see it, but we care

Wherever parts are bonded, metal to metal, metal to plastic or plastic to plastic, we use a colorless, odorless, eco-friendly adhesive with no flash point that withstands heat for long periods and won’t cause allergies, redness or itching on skin contact. Test report available.

 

It is a detail customers rarely see but one that matters for safety, especially for products held close to the body or handled by children.

PackagingChoosing an Alloy

From export protection to retail-ready packaging.

Standard protective packing

Crush-, moisture-, dust- and sun-resistant, in 5-ply export cartons.

Carton weight

We recommend 25–30 kg (55–66 lb) per carton, usually a dozen to several dozen poles: easy to handle and hard to crush.

Retail packaging

Color boxes, barcodes, hang tags, labels and instructions. You provide the content and design; we produce and print.

Pallets and container loading

Palletized shipping available; we calculate loads for 20 ft, 40 ft and 40 ft high-cube containers to help you work out freight cost.

RFID / EPC tags

Added to the hang tag or packaging of each unit, so large retailers can receive and count stock faster.

The Last Mile: Hand Us Your Other Purchases TooChoosing an Alloy

A product is rarely just the pole: brush heads, nets, accessories, manuals and boxes may come from several suppliers. Have them all delivered to Upsilon, and we inspect them, assemble or kit them, then pack and ship them with your telescoping products.

01

Deliver to our factory

Your other suppliers send their parts and packaging materials straight to Upsilon.

02

Incoming inspection

Checked batch by batch against your standards, so problems are caught before shipping, not at destination.

03

Assemble or kit

Assembled with the telescoping product into a finished item, or packed together as a set.

04

Ship together

Packed and loaded in the same shipment as your telescoping products.

One point of contact

You only manage one factory.

Lower freight

Goods from different suppliers travel together, in fewer separate shipments.

One checkpoint

Everything is inspected here before it ships.

RFID Tags: Receiving, Counting and InventoryChoosing an Alloy

RFID reads information from a chip by radio waves: no lining up, no scanning one by one, and many items can be read at once through the packaging. Upsilon adds RFID/EPC tags to the hang tag or packaging of each unit.

Hang tags and packaging

Retail warehouses: faster receiving and counts

Large retailers’ warehouses use the tags to receive goods, count stock and track inventory: a whole carton passing a reader is read at once, with no unpacking to scan barcodes.

A number for every unit

Inventory and asset management: every unit visible

Every tag on a hang tag or package carries its own number, so you and your retailers always know where stock is and how it moves:

Receiving: confirm a shipment is complete without opening cartons

Stock counts: read a whole shelf or pallet at once, far faster than barcodes

Tracking: follow each unit from warehouse to store

Loss prevention: spot missing units quickly

Tags go on the hang tag or packaging, placed to suit your and your retailer’s requirements.
